To make a row of cross-stitches, pull needle up at A, then push it down at B (Cross-Stitch Diagram). Pull needle up at C, then push it down at D. Repeat to make as many cross-stitches as desired. When you reach the end of a row, pull needle up at G, then push it down at H to make an X. Continue in same manner to cross all stitches and complete row.

2. Referring to Diagram 4, fold the 1" edge under 1⁄4"; press. Fold same edge under 3⁄4" so fabric fold abuts fleece. Press and topstitch close to first folded edge to make a backing rectangle. The backing rectangle should be 101⁄2×17" including seam allowances.

3. Repeat steps 1 and 2 to make a second backing rectangle.

4. Overlap hemmed edges of backing rectangles by about 4" to make a 17"-square pillow back (Diagram 5). Baste overlapped edges as shown.

assemble, appliqué, and quilt pillow top1. Sew together green print 12×17" rectangle and multicolor print 6×17" rectangle to make appliqué foundation (Diagram 2). Press seam open. The foundation should be 17" square including seam allowances.

2. Referring to Appliqué Placement Diagram, position appliqué shapes A–N and cross-stitch appliqué on appliqué foundation. Fuse pieces in place following manufacturer’s instructions. Using standard white thread, machine-straight-stitch a scant 1⁄8" from edges of each appliqué piece.

3. Referring to dotted lines on Appliqué Placement Diagram, use an air- or water-soluble pen to mark the path of the thread beginning at the H spool and continuing beyond the N presser foot. If desired, place tear-away stabilizer behind appliqué design. Using heavyweight white thread and a long stitch length, machine-straight-stitch along the marked line. Remove stabilizer.

4. Center the fusible fleece 16" square on wrong side of appliquéd foundation. Fuse in place following manufacturer’s instructions. Quilt as desired to make pillow top. Designer Gina Martin machine-outline-quilted around the appliquéd design. She stitched parallel vertical lines in the green print background and parallel horizontal lines in the multicolor print rectangle.

finish pillow1. Using diagonal seams, sew together red print 2"-wide bias strips to make a 75"-long strip.

2. With wrong side inside, fold under 11⁄2" at one end of 75"-long strip; press. Fold strip in half lengthwise with wrong side inside. Insert 3⁄16"-diameter cording next to folded edge with cording end 1" from folded end of strip. Using a cording or zipper foot, machine-baste close to cording to make piping (Diagram 6). Trim seam allowance to 1⁄4".

3. Beginning at center of one edge, pin piping to right side of pillow top, aligning raw edges. Begin stitching 11⁄2" from folded end of piping. When you reach a corner, ease piping into place and clip seam allowance to within a few threads of stitching line (Diagram 7). Continue in same manner until you are within 2"–3" of starting point. Cut end of piping so it will fit into folded opening; the cording ends should abut inside piping (Diagram 8). Stitch remainder of piping in place.

4. Layer pillow top and pillow back with right sides together; pin or baste edges. Sew together through all layers to make pillow cover. Clip corners. Turn pillow cover right side out and insert pillow form to complete pillow.
