Last Minute Birthday Party Pillow

A couple of weeks ago my daughter went to a birthday party.  The day of the party I realized that I had forgotten to buy a gift so we decided to make her a pillow.

The party was princess-themed and even though my daughter can't stand pink, we decided that was probably the way to go.  I used this tutorial

And this one for the back. This is a slight variation on how I normally make the pillow closure, but it is my new favorite method because it doesn't involve switching to a zipper foot and it creates a flap to cover the zipper without having to sew on an extra piece of fabric.

The front of the pillow is quilt-as-you-go which helped speed things up, too.

We wrapped the pillow up with some chocolate and gifted it to my daughter's friend.  

Finished size: 14" x 14"
