Making a quilted pillow cover would allow me to play with the idea without a huge time investment. I considered some possibilities and did a lot of research. I have played with several ideas and methods. Finally I settled on a way of combining the two that works wonderfully and makes me very happy.
Today I took a pieced pillow top that I had shown once before and finished it into a pillow.
I have worked this method up for a class that is planned for August in Peachtree City Georgia. Now there are three complete samples - I showed the other two on this post. I have made some other "pieces" to use as examples in the class.
Planning a class like this is a good bit of work, but it certainly helped me to refine the technique for this.

Yes, it works! Colorful and interesting, as always.
Great finish and good class sample. Take the quilting design from the design elements always works.
Combining those materials really made a nice pillow. The colors are wonderful and the quilting adds to the fun of it. Good luck with the class!
Beautifully done. I think it would be fun to experiment making clothing using this piecework combining handwoven and commercial fabric. Makes me wish I had more of a fabric stash to draw on.
Very nice!! Good luck with the class - ;))
