While putting away some of my retreat supplies, I decided to sit down and finish my pillow tops. I had taken this old UFO kit with me just in case I needed one more project to work on. I have taken this kit with me to retreats for 3 years!
My table buddy Marilee was working on a pillow cover made from a quilt block. As I was making my first block--one was already complete--I decided to make the 2 blocks into pillow covers and be done with this UFO. I did it. I just needed to put the binding on this morning and decorative stitch it down.
Now I have 2 new couch pillows and 1 less UFO and I am happy! I told you the retreat was full of inspiration! The pieces for this former project will go back into the correct bins and I will mark this UFO off the list. Now back to laundry. :o)

AWESOME! Cute pillows, too!
I love how the subtle brown makes the other colors pop!
What a nice, creative way to cross a UFO off the list. It is a fun looking pattern, but it does look like it would be time consuming. Glad you got it finished off.
Sew cute!
love the background on those pillows-nice contrast and they look so good on your couch!
The pillows look great!
What a great finish! Nothing like laundry to bring a gal down from that "finished project high"!
