French Window Pillow Cover

Friday Class-Registration Closed. Saturday Class-Open. Let me show you how to create a modern take on a classic patchwork pillow. This pillow received the most oooh's and ahhh's of all when I showed it at Quilt Market last Fall, featuring a cheerful patchwork of my spa-inspired “Sanctuary” collection designed for Michael Miller Fabrics. My French Window pillow cover features 9 colorful charm squares sashed in white, and backed with an envelope-style backing for easy care. We will even create and add some lovely contrast binding along the edges for extra pizazz and a more professional finish. Each student will complete the pillow cover as pictured (finished size 18" x 18") using Patty Young's "Sanctuary" fabrics. Basic sewing knowledge is recommended. A kit will be provided at the start of the class that includes:

  • French Window printed tutorial
  • Enough fabric to complete the pillow cover exactly as pictured. Fabric will be from the Sanctuary collection by Patty Young for Michael Miller Fabrics.
  • Contrasting Binding
  • MODKID seam insert
  • Sewing thread
  • All items will be beautifully packaged in a MODKID signature bag
  • NOTE: the pillow insert will NOT be provided, but you can bring your own or take the pillow cover home flat.
Students should bring to class:

 Optional: you may bring your own 18" pillow insert if you desire but for those traveling from afar, this pillow cover will fit any standard 18" square pillow you have at home.

Additional materials will be provided at class

Additional materials fee: $10.00

All students in Patty's classes will be entered into a drawing to win one of these brand new OLFA cutters:
