My sister-in-law came up with an idea to make cathedral window panels for pillows as memory pieces out of fabric and clothing of my late mother-in-law. This is the first one.

Close-up:
264.5 pillow top and back
110 pillow side
484 cathedral window
858.5 total square inches = 0.5 yards
Edit - I forgot about the squares on top! I'd guess another 0.1 yards used there, what with trimming and having to use background white under some of the squares. So I'm going to call the total 0.6 yards.
This was a LOT of work to bust half a yard of stash!!

Really nice Michele. It is kinda fun to do. Hadn't thought about it for a memory quilt. That's a great idea.

It might have been alot of hard work, but it's sooooo worth it...from the aesthetic look of the pillow, but also the sentimental side of it with the clothing from MIL.
Great Job
