The year of finishes

My goal this year is to start and finish as many projects as possible.  This American Flag quilt block is my first 2016 quilted finish.  I found the pattern for the block on the beautiful website Cluck Cluck Sew  I chose to use low volume fabrics for the white stripes and star.  I thought matchstick quilting would make this pillow more durable for every day couch use.

The back side is a decor weight Premier Prints postage printed fabric.  I used a metal zipper closure on the bottom of the pillow.

A little patriotic accent to an otherwise colorful and mixed up decor.

Here's to more 2016 finishes!
