Sunglasses at hand an advantage. I love bright colours!

Hi Betty Jo,

A Quillow is a quilt that can be folded up into a pouch to form a pillow.

What makes her quillow so pretty is that it looks like a regular quilt. A lot of times people will only quilt the pillow/pouch part and use a pretty print for the quilt top (one piece - not pieced).
