It really is very satisfying to make a small project now and again. Even the basting (!!) and the quilting become a joy when the quilt sandwich is not much bigger than a 20 inch square.
For the back of the pillow cover I have again used the Children at Play border print - Parade - and have used a light weight fusible interfacing for stability and durability. Fusible interfacing is easy to use, and with a warm iron it is quickly applied. The interfacing has added body to the back of the pillow without stiffness.
A zip is hidden under the overlapping flap not quite half way down the back of the pillow. The pillow form/insert can therefore be easily removed before washing the pillow cover.

This patchwork pillow cover is ready for shipping and I have a feeling that one lucky little girl will enjoy this pillow very much!
Thank you for stopping by,
