I've been making pillows and pillow cases. Thought I'd share my quickest pillow ever!
Here's what you need:
- One square of fabric and one square of batting the same size as your pillow form. Mine are 16" x 16".
- Two pieces of fabric for the back, each the size of your pillow form x the size of your form plus 4". Mine are 16" x 20". Fold them in half wrong sides together matching the short edges.
Layer your batting square, the pillow front right side up, and the two backing pieces matching the raw edges. The folds will overlap in the middle. Pin all the way around.
Sew all the way around the pillow using a 1/2" seam allowance. Trim the corners and turn right side out.
Slip in your pillow form! Voila!
Making the pillow smaller than your form is a great tip for getting a nice plump pillow. The batting for the front and the double layers on the back, both provide for a nice stable pillow.Here they are in place!
My Sprocket pillow needs some stuffing ~ hope to get that today. Then I'll be adding some cute buttons in the middle.
