  • Take the cross stitch and a gray fabric, right sides together, sew around leaving an opening, turn
  • Glue the rick rack to the back of the cross stitch so it shows half way
  • Take a 2 slightly  larger pieces of purple, right sides together, sew around leaving an opening, turn 
  • Orange stripe is one piece of fabric, quilted
  • Position the purple in the middle of the striped fabric and top stitch
  • Position the cross stitch on top and tack it down in the 4 corners 
  • Make the pillow back with 2 rectangles overlapping
  • Insert the pillow form!

  1. I plan on using a Happy Fall layer cake. I love fall! I love the smells, colors & sounds. I ordered the layer cake before Cozy Things was announced, knowing that the right quilt would come along, and Cozy Things is it! I’ll be catching up this weekend and this will be my 1st Fall quilt. Can’t wait til I can snuggle up under it and it becomes one of my cozy things. Quilts, candles, and a warm cup o’ tea…these are some of my favorite things. 🙂

  2. Hi
    Do you know if the group of quilters is still taking quilts for the wildfire victims? If so, please post the address or link to it. Many thanks.

  3. Pat – I can’t seem to find the list you created that we can fill out for ideas for Cozy for fall and Winter. Can you point me to where it is? Thanks!

  4. I really enjoyed doing Going on a Picnic. The top is finished. I thought I wouldn’t do Cozy Things as I have started Sewcialites but as it is so much fun choosing fabric and the blocks are quick and easy I have the first two done. I am a hand quilters so my tops are starting to pile up!

  5. Thanks Pat, This is one of my favorite blocks. I think I would like to do some in trapunto Christmas designs for the center blocks. As far as cleaning up the notions, I got a good start on that this week as I sold my antique quilting machine and made a lot of room in the sewing room. I have a large drawer in my cabinet so it worked to “put away” a lot of little things.

  6. My day job is getting in the way of my quilting projects. As a result I am not doing this one yet. I hope to find some time to catch up on a few of the UFO’s and that I will be ready to begin with the group on the next project. It is fun watching all of you creating fun blocks. Keep up the great work!

  7. I’m loving your cozy things see along. My fabric is on the light side so I embroidered the center block! Thanks Pat for this creative quilt!
