Quillow

"A quillow is a quilt with a pillow pouch attached. When folded, it looks like a pillow; when fully unfolded it is a quilt to keep you warm with a pouch for your feet.
I mentioned in my first post that my original inspiration for sewing was because of a Quillow that I was going to make with my Tante. Well after months of waiting I am actually going to post pictures of it.

It was a tonne of fun to make and sewing machine malfunctions aside only took a day ^_^

I found some good instructions on the web (http://www.capitalquilts.com/freeproject/makeaquillow.pdf) should anyone out there like to give it a try ^_^ and don't worry if your not great with sewing just give it a go and see what happens!
