    Darling little pillows! And I LOVE the fact that you retract the blade on your rotary cutter and lock/check it with every cut!!

    Thank you so much for the L seam tip to start and stop when putting the front and back together! I’ve been sewing for 50+ years and never thought to do this! I love learning new things. Thank you again! I Love your and Chelsi’s fabrics and patterns!

    thanks for the little pillows. I am a slow cross stitcher, but I have plenty of orphan blocks.

    Cute pillows. I’m so glad you explained that making L-shaped seams at the opening left for stuffing makes it much easier to fold in the raw edges when it’s time to stitch up the opening. I learned that trick several years ago, and you are the first quilter I’ve heard mention it in a pillow-making tutorial.

    I learned it years ago as well, but wish I had known about it even before that 🤣

    I really enjoyed this video. I always admire the pillows you make and the mini ones are so cute! The best part was your "swe up" tip. I know it will be a game changer for me going forward. Thank you so much!

    Sherri, you are the QUEEN of pillows in my opinion and quilting studio. I am a new quilter and have not yet made a pillow, they terrify me. I LOVE all of yours. I need to “jump” in. No doubt once I take that leap…they will become an addiction. Thank you, I love your teaching.

    Sherri, I love making pillow cases because of your video showing how to insert the zipper! I refer to it every time I make one because it is so helpful and it keeps me on track. I have made the zipper backed pillowcases for every season and given them as Christmas gifts. Thank you for your helpful videos!

    Great idea, I have a few blocks made that I’ve set aside because I didn’t like the colour choice for that particular project but really there was nothing wrong with the block itself. Now they can be pulled out and finished .. Thank you for the quick video..
