Queen of Hearts Rectangle Pillow crochet pattern

Queen of Hearts Rectangle Pillow & Pillow Cover crochet pattern by Crafting Friends Designs

I've just released the Queen of Hearts Rectangle Pillow crochet pattern in my shop. This is the 2nd pillow in the Queen of Hearts home decor collection.

What is included in this pattern?

The Queen of Hearts Rectangle Pillow crochet pattern includes instructions to make your own 12"x16" rectangle pillow form for those who prefer to make their own AND the pillow cover. The pillow cover is open at the top with a flap and closes with 3 (1") buttons. It includes many stitch placement photos to help if needed. It also includes a stitch chart for those who like to see a chart for the visual placement of stitches.
