Martinique Pillows

When Mom and I got the fabric for the Under the Sea table runner, I also got some charm packs (40 5" squares each) of Martinique by 3 Sisters for Moda. It's a wonderful line of fabric, French inspired, and in nice pale blues, pinks, and tans. Very cute. Anyways, it's perfect for some nice throw pillows for my new bedding. :)

I searched around online for some simple quilt block patterns and found some cute and possible (5" squares are some what of a limitation, along with the quantity of each print) blocks to use. I was also looking for potentials for throw pillows for our couch and some for Jason to match his quilt. For the ones for my room, I settled on a block named 'Love in a Mist'. Anyways, here's some pictures...

Here are the squares chosen for the first pillow:


And for the second:


All cut up!




And the beginnings of the first block:



I'm actually almost done with the first block and will have more pictures soon...
