A cheery new bench pillow has taken up residence on my family room sofa, and it has a nice summery feel to it. This began life as a row kit from the 2017 Row By Row experience. I picked up the kit in Manchester Iowa, and loved it enough to make it very soon after arriving home from my little road trip. It has been draped over a hanger in my sewing room closet for 3 years waiting to become something.
Mostly it's very traditional blocks - flying geese, house, and bowtie/spool blocks. And then the little section of embroidery was added, to bring out the theme of "On The Go". I added a narrow border and a slightly wider border to make this fit the pillow form. This bench pillow is 16" x 38", and I quilted it myself with simple matchstick lines about 3/4" apart.

I ❤️ everything about this pillow - design, blocks, colors, and fabrics!
It is perfect!!! Love it.
That is a sweet pillow! Great way to finish up that row by row project!
What a great pillow cover!
I’ve been thinking about using a bench pillow on the sofa. Since we don’t have a porch bench. Thanks for validating that idea! What a great idea to use the row by row blocks! I might have a few hidden away! LOL!
