This Pillow Talk Swap #3 just sounded like so much fun and a one time deal so I joined in (for this round anyway)!
Who wouldn't like a grand new pillow to brighten up their home?
So we get a little info about our partner as to their likes, but we never know who our partner is going to be.
This is what I put together and am sending off to my partner:
Just 169 1 1/2 inch squares of the new Pure by Sweetwater (which I happened to get at Quilt Market) for a 20 inch pillow.
+++++++++
And for some reason today I could get the correct color and show the quilting on my Hope Valley quilt, so you have to look at it again:

Mary- I love my pillow! Thank you so much! I was wondering how you got your hands on some Pure! I couldn't be happier with it.
Love your quilt too- especially how you switched out the layout.
