This is very pretty! What did you stuff it with?

I stuffed it with rolled up quilt batting. The roll of it you can buy was the perfect size I wanted. I took the plastic wrapper off and pushed it right in, no unrolling. The regular poly fill stuffing will work too, but this kind rolled up gives it better shape.

I love this! I have a bolster pillow form and was trying to find something I liked to make for it. This is just so pretty. Love the frilly ends you made. Is there a pattern for this somewhere?

Thanks Pam. Sorry, I don't have a pattern, I just made it up as I went. You can do regular granny squares, but what I did to give it a more 3D look was do the 2nd row behind the post of the first row. Corners are 2dc, ch1, 2dc in same sp. The lacy ends I think I just did V stitches, dc, ch1, dc in same sp. I gave it as a gift long ago so don't have it here anymore.
