Add One Pillow (free pattern) - Janome Tutorial

Hi friends! Today I'm sharing a free pattern for the Add One Pillow (here) and on the Janome Project Page (here).  

The design of the Add One Pillow is inspired by Math Puzzles using half-square triangles. Each quadrant of the Add One Pillow increases by one half-square triangle and creates a fun pattern! I thought it was perfect as it's Back to School time!

I created the Add One Pillow using my Janome M17 - which is SEW amazing! I love how easy the Janome M17 is to use and it stitches so beautifully!

  • 1/4" foot: I love to use the HP 1/4" foot. [ piecing blocks ]
