I've been working long hours on the construction project but I wanted to sneak away and link up with amylouwho's sew-n-tell Friday! Congrats to her on the birth of her beautiful new baby girl!!
Remember this stack of fabric?
Well, I've been mulling around a design in my head about what I wanted to do with it, and I kept coming back to a log cabin style design.
Naturally, it became a quillow!
I wanted a coordinating print to go with the solids and stumbled upon this one which had every color and then some orange.
I like to name my quillows and the word "citrus" kept coming to mind with this one. I'm not sure I like it, but I can't help think of summer and citrus fruits - lemon, lime, grapefruit - whenever I see these colors.
Can you help me think of a better name than just plain old "Citrus"?
All that's left now is some hand quilting and it's ready for the quillow shop.
Speaking of shops - don't forget that my Mother's Day sale is still going at my Etsy shop - 20% off EVERYTHING in stock! Sale ends Sunday.
So, I'll leave you with a rosebud from my garden - Happy Mother's Day!

Your work is just lovely. Only name I could come up with is "harlequin"....
Citrus is good; I like "Summer" better. BTW, these are beautiful.
Cute Jenn! ok, how about daisy days?
Citrus is very fitting! A quillow is one of those things I've wanted to make for each of our children for our many road trips, but they're growing so quickly that I despair of ever getting around to it. Yours is very cheery!
It's cheery and fun, and your pattern choice was perfect! It looks like rainbow sherbet to me, swirled into the carton. Mmm-m.
Happy Mother's Day, my friend! Life is a bit busy over here, too.

CITRUSY LOG CABIN OR

Can't think of a name but it's a LOVELY quillow!
How yummy! What about a "A bowl of sorbet" for a name?
Love your quilt!! Isn't it fun to find the PERFECT border after the fact? You did it!
Love this variation on the log cabin block!
I think Citrus is perfect. I love the colors!
