While I love to sleep under a homemade quilt. There are so many more ways to use scrappy patchwork. Today I’d like to focus on how you can use quilting for your home. Enabling you to add splashes of color and decorate for seasons and holidays. While giving a personal, handmade warmth to every room.
Home isn’t just where we live. It’s where life happens. Make your home feel warm, welcoming and uniquely yours. Add a touch of color with throw pillows, table runners and mats, as well as wall hangings. These smaller projects take less time and are an easy way to refresh your decor without redecorating.
Handmade Home Decor Ideas
I enjoy making pillow covers that I can exchange throughout the year. Learn how with this quick video tutorial. Throw pillows are beginner friendly. Use a simple single fabric or practice a technique from piecing to free motion quilting. Pillow covers are scrap friendly, or a great way to find a home for an orphan block. Give your homemade pillows a modern flare or try different pillows for each holiday. 
Wall hangings are another way to add art to bare walls. Try a mini quilt with bold graphics to add color. Use a word quilt to inspire. Star festive throughout the year with seasonal wall decor. Try one of these methods to hang your wall hangings. 
Besides pillows and wall hangings you might want to try table toppers and runners. Quilted baskets also add a nice homey feel. Hot pads and appliqued dishtowels are another cozy touch.
