Pretty Quilted Rising Star Pillow for Aunt Joann

My aunt and uncle recently celebrated their 51st wedding anniversary. My aunt is quite ill with cancer so I made a cheerful, flowery, star quilted pillow as an anniversary gift.


I used the Rising Star quilt block pattern at MyWebQuilter.com to create the block.


To quilt the center square, I used the Flower Ball free motion quilt design from Day's Style Design. I was very happy with that pattern although is doesn't show up very well in this picture.



Making the pillow back was quick and easy using the envelope method.

Happy quilting!
