Quillow is finished

 I was having so much fun with this quilt I didn’t stop until it was finished.

I quilted it each side of the road. Simple stitching.


Spending Sunday night sewing down the binding


It looks fantastic out on the grass. 



I just love this backing. I have had it in the stash for about 10-12 years. It is perfect for this quilt.
You can see a pocket with a zip on the back too. This is the pocket to transform it into a quillow.


I added the extra zip pocket to put some cars in it to take along and play with.


All folded into a cushion for easy storage and cleanup.


With the hidden pocket on the inside.


What is a quillow?
It is a quilt that folds and stores away into a pillow. Making it a QUILLOW.
And the 3rd good thing about it is that it is also a playmat. So this is a triple winner. 
Going to be a gift for my friends grandsons.

It’s fantastic and that backing was just waiting for this special Quillow.
I made a quillow for each of my four Great Grandchildren for Christmas last year. Just perfect for all the travelling they do being country kids…...
