Hubby gave me these beautiful fabrics a couple of years ago. I was saving it for a project I had in mind but this pillow was as good a project as any to use these fabrics for. I pretty much followed the pattern instructions except for the window on the first house. I pieced all three pieces together and I added a round window on the last house.
Here's my pillow stuffed on the couch.
This is the pillow before I stuffed it.
