Pattern Description:

I was inspired by a fleece pillow tutorial I posted about over the weekend on my blog, and I had this vision of a sunflower version I could not wait to try. So, while Joann's was having their blizzard fleece solids super cheap, plus the extra 25% off your entire purchase ($3/yd!!), I ran up there 30 minutes before closing and got the supplies.

I have to say, I love how this came out. Even my almost 13 year old liked it, and that's saying something! Woohoo! The only thing I'd change was that I used a mustard yellow fleece and I'd probably do it in a brighter yellow if it was for a child's room. This darker yellow just gives me harvest gold 1970s afghan on the back of the couch vibes. It's perfect for a hipster's couch ;).

Materials:

1 yd yellow fleece
