I would love a tute for the pillow. I found the ornament instructions online. Could you tell me more specifically about hand sewing the points down. Like should it be invisible. Is it just a tacking or backstitching. Do you need to tie off between points. Ahh--show me--PLEASE

Oh my goodness, your pillow is lovely! I've got a couple of unfinished small round ones that were supposed to be hot pads...they're nearing vintage...started in the early eighties! I highly recommend these for pressing practice...hahaha...will seriously improve accuracy! And the sand board I made for marking is still in use today...well, it's in my travel bag...not really in use...perhaps I'll dig those out and see about finishing them... geez, inspiration comes from all sides on this board, doesn't it? Thanks for sharing!

You say once you get it its simple but could you possibly say how long each block took? And I would love to see a tutorial on this its striking.
