I started this pillow approximately six years ago. I was living in NYC and had taken a Hawaiian applique class. At some point, I decided to make a pillow for my sister for Christmas, and when Christmas arrived, I had the applique and quilting done -- but no finished product.
Given that the applique and quilting are done by hand, you might assume adding a backing to and a pillow insert would be no big deal. Not true!
The finished pillow is filled with stuffing and sewn shut. I wanted to make a pillow cover with invisible zipper; alas, I got frustrated. As a friend used to tell me, "Better done than perfect."
