Crafturday! A Little Pillow

It's been a while since I shared some craft projects with you so here goes.

Here is a 12 inch pillow I made using this pattern called Scrap Attack, which I found on Craftsy. This was an easy paper piecing pattern that did indeed use up a whole bunch of fabric scraps. I love paper piecing and I'm getting into making this quick, instant-gratification projects like small pillows.

It's the perfect size for my head and I think little pillows like this would make great gifts, too. I backed the block in an ugly fabric- I now have a basket in my sewing room filled with "ugly" fabric for just such things- and used a vibrant red Hawaiian fabric for the pillow "envelope," where the pillow form goes in.

I can't wait to make more little paper pieced pillows!
