Granny Square Pillows
Well, I finished my fall pillow that I started during our FUN-tober with Happy Little Stitch Shop celebration!
I fell in love with these diagonal Granny Square pillows during a tutorial by Lori Holt (linked below) and I decided to make one. Well, one quickly turned into two!
I started with the blue one pictured here. I made mine as a 12" pillow. I followed Lori's YouTube video for color selection and placement. Watch Lori's video HERE.
Colors for Blue Pillow:
- Vivid

- Sweet Mint
You guys know my love of fall, so I couldn't resist an autumn Granny Square pillow! This was perfect for our FUN-tober crochet project!
I made this one a 16" pillow. Again, I followed Lori's color choices and placement outlined in her Fall Pillow video. Watch Lori's video HERE.

Happy stitching!
Angela your Granny Square pillows are beautiful. I fell in love with the diagonal Granny Square pillows after watching Lori’s tutorial as well!! I have done 2 in the same blues and greens, using the exact same colors. I’ve given them as gifts, so now I am making one in just four colors: Blush, Blossom, Cayenne and Chamomile. I’m trying something a little different, changing thread color after every 2 rows. It might take a little longer to finish it. This past weekend I was cutting fabric and I cut a very large chunk of skin off of my left index finger! Yes and I know better. 😊 I can still sew though!
Thank you Angela for sharing your talents with us! We appreciate you!!
Love your pillows!
Your granny square pillow is wonderful.
Your pillows look great! Good job! Thanks for listing the colors.
These are so cute.
