Ruffle Pillow for Halloween

Cute & easy ruffle pillow


I think I’ve said before how much I love fast projects.  I think I’ve said it a lot actually.  This was another quick one, and I enjoyed every step of it.  The fabrics for this pillow came from the leftovers of a Halloween quilt I did for my local quilt shop.  Most of the fabrics are from the “Too Cute to Spook” line designed by Bella Blvd for Riley Blake.  Both the pattern for the quilt and the pattern for the pillow came from this Adorn It Capri book:

I haven’t shown any photos of the quilt yet, but only because I completely forgot to take any before I dropped it off at The Fabric Mill.  The quilt is pretty cute, but I’m really loving this pillow.

It’s seriously a very fast little project and I love the look of the pseudo-ruffles.  I think my niece needs one of these pillows.  The pattern makes a 16” pillow and (lucky me) I just happened to have an extra and unused 16” pillow form in my closet.  I love when that happens.

The pillow was a big hit around here.  My son has already made me pinky-promise that he can use the pillow once it comes home from being a display.  In the meantime, I think I’ll make one in blues and greens for my bed. 

Thanks for stopping by!
