Bricks of low volume with jewel-toned corners? Yes please!
I love the oblong 6-pointed star that results when the bricks are offset like this. I called it the Horoscope pillow because of these stars. It is a pretty easy pattern to put together and BONUS - if you double seam your little corner squares and save your "two-fers" you can use them for a teeny tiny piecing project, like this!
There are 22 scrap projects in this issue of Quilt Now and an article on scrap organization by fellow quilting Canadian Cheryl Arkison. Order your print or electronic copy today (only 90 print copies remaining!).
I hope that you'll share your version of Horoscope with me when you make it!
The pillow cover is bound just like a quilt and there's a hidden zip in the back!
