I used a variety of Denyse Schmidt fabrics from the Aunt Edna, Daisy Mae and Richmond ranges, in autumny colours of orange, dark blue, grey and a touch of chartreuse.
The quilting was done in straight lines again, some of it in orange thread and the remainder in white to match the background fabric.
And bound it in one of my favourite stripey fabrics from Daisy Mae - I am also going to use this for binding my DS swoon when it is done.
The voting is all done now so the pillows are on their way to their new homes - as usual, the quality of the pillows in the swap is amazing, and they are all so different. I can't wait to see which one arrives at my house in a few weeks!
