"Oeuvre" (the works of a painter, composer, or author regarded collectively: "the complete oeuvre of Mozart" a work of art, music, or literature: "an early oeuvre" ORIGIN late 19th cent.: French, literally 'work.' - Oxford Dictionary.)
Elizabeth Hartman's quilt patterns are unique and fun. I did one before that I loved - "Dogs in Sweaters", you can read that post here: https://hearsdifferentdrummer.blogspot.com/2017/08/mon-oeuvre-dogs-in-sweaters-quilt_21.html
This time I tackled 3 of her other quilts, but one block at a time as pillows. They have been gifted as early Christmas gifts, so I can now share them.
The patterns called for a 26" finished pillow, my husband did the math calculations for me to resize the blocks to fit a 20" pillow. I also had the fun of making my first envelope closure on the back of the pillows. The first two pillows I made: Legendary & Lisa the Unicorn had pillow patterns included with the quilt pattern, Frances the Firefly did not.
Here they are:
Legendary
Lisa the Unicorn
Frances the Firefly
This was the only one I did without a pillow pattern, this pattern only had the full quilt directions.
We had to bring Frances' wide wings in quite a bit to fit so now it's a new species: a Firefly that is morphing into a Butterfly.
All together!
Such a fun project❤
