September Kimberbell Club: Snowflake Kisses Pillow

From the first snow flurry of fall through Valentine's Day this charming snowman will melt your heart. The snowman features a chenille cuff on his hat and the cursive backstitch sentiment is expertly embroidered in the hoop. You'll sew a pinwheel block and piece all the elements together on your sewing machine, then finish with a classic quilt binding for the perfect piped border.
