Sewing pattern: Patchwork Halloween pillow

This patchwork Halloween pillow is soo cute! Jen from Smitten Kitten shares a tutorial at Therm O Web showing how to make it. The patchwork is made easy by using a mini charm pack. Just sew the squares together to make that pretty patchwork border! Her post also includes templates for the applique design in the middle of the pillow.
