Patchwork Beehive Pillow Pattern

As Spring has sprung and our friends, the bees are buzzing around again, making a quilted hive pillow seemed perfect.

The simple patchwork piecing of this design makes this a quick to make, so I added some extra pizzazz by using lots of different free motion quilting motifs.

– Yellow fabrics – Black fabric – Background fabric – Light backing fabric – Batting – Pillow back fabric – Pillow form

Supplies

Take two yellow 6½” x 3½” rectangles and one black 2½” x 3½” rectangle. Sew one yellow rectangle to one long edge of the black rectangle.

Construction:

Sew one yellow 14½” x 3½” rectangle to the top edge of the unit from step one then press.

Now take two background 2½” x 6½” rectangles and sew them to either side of the unit from step two. Press and set aside.

Take one yellow 12½” x 3½” and two background 3½” squares. Sew the background squares to either side of the yellow rectangle. Press and set aside.
