Scrap log cabin pillow cover

I read Gwen Marston's Liberated Quilting II over the weekend. The idea
of just playing with fabric at your sewing machine and planning/sewing
as you go was really liberating!
So I decided to just go for it with scraps in the blue and green
families. I have loads of them.

I added a half inch to the actual pillow form of 14x18. Then I made
two panels for the back measuring 14.5x11. I sewed a hem on the
exposed side of the back panels.
I then put right sides together, pinned and sewed around the
rectangle. Final step was to turn it inside out and stuff in the
pillow. I used a feather pillow insert since I like the mushy feel of
it.
