Firstly, thanks so much for all your sweet comments on my baby curlicue quilt. I really feel so happy to be involved in such a supportive community.
I couldn’t resist using some leftover squares from the curlicue quilt to make a coordinating pillow. There’s just something about a little matching set of goodness to send to a new baby that I can’t stop myself.
It really came together quick and I was surprised that it actually fits a travel sized pillow form.
I love trying to wrap everything up pretty. I just used some leftover binding material, ripped it across the grain and you’ve got yourself a pretty little bow. If there’s anything I’d like to improve on it would definitely would be my wrapping/packaging skills. I think for whatever reason I just fizzle out at the end creatively. Here’s to trying new things!
Have a great weekend! See you Monday for Sewing with Knits. I’m off to an estate sale, wish me luck. ♥
This pillow is adorable! And perfect to go with the curlicue baby quilt. Just dreamy.
Such a beautiful set! Nice work!
What a lovely set! So pretty and modern. Good job!
Your baby quilt and pillow are just gorgeous. I love seeing vintage sheets used like this it gives me such good ideas. Good Luck at the estate sale, I have to say I am just a tiny little bit green! (They are a rare event here!)
SO beautiful! Great work. You’re getting me more interested in quilting!! Thanks for sharing!
This is beautiful! I love your blog – so fresh and inspiring!!!
Happy Stitching!!!

This is so perfect to match with your quilt! What a beautiful baby gift!! And the ribbon is a great way of wrapping them up! BEAUTIFUL!!!
Very sweet! I love using my scraps for bows, too! I hope you find great things at the estate sale!
What a sweet gift!! I’m sure it will be loved for many years! 🙂
That is so cute. Well done.

Beautiful! I feel the same way about wrapping. I get some good ideas from Pinterest but I never seem to remember to get the supplies/ execute them. 🙂
Hi anna,
where do you get your travel size pillow forms?
what are the dimensions of a travel size pillow?
I’d like to make some for the kids to travel with next weekend but I didn’t realize there was a true pillow form….
thanks

Such a sweet pillow!
I couldn’t agree more with your sentiment on how rewarding it is to be a part of such a supportive community! Your pillow and quilt are gorgeous … I love anything made with vintage sheets, although I have never made even one thing with them. That is one lucky baby! I try to use leftover scraps of fabric, and selvages to wrap presents in too .. I think it adds a really nice touch.
Keep up the beautiful work!
Hugs, Sara @ thesplitstitch.com
What a perfect gift!
Absolutely beautiful!!
Very nice!
Pure cuteness!

Aww, I love. I want. Great job!!
so sweet! 🙂
These are both so gorgeous, especially as a set, and I love that it’s a present the little girl will be able to use for a long time (if not forever!).
So pleased to have found your pretty blog, too. 🙂
Love it. I noticed the free motion quilting and would love to hear any tips that you have!!
I think it wrapped up just beautifully. x
Adorable, Anna. Perfect addition to the quilt. I just realized that a small pillow would be a good opportunity to practice my machine quilting skills. Thanks for the inspiration 🙂
Such a perfect gift! (and obviously you haven’t seen my wrapping skills…they are atrocious!)
Anna- This set is so lovely! Might be my favorite of all your projects!
Sweet pillow and cute wrapping!
So, so beautiful Anna!!!
Oh how I am in love with this pillow. It’s the sweetest thing. Ever!
Oh, how sweet! I need to make one of these, once I get over my fear of doing that freestyle stitching that looks so nice on quilts…
