WIP Quilt and Finished Pillow

I have the quilting bug, and having finished the first baby quilt, I am now working on a second. I bought this fabulous fabric by Anna Maria Horner at Patchwork on Central when we were in Melbourne a few weeks ago.

I am hoping it won't take too long to finish, as I have a stack of things I want to make over the next few months!
