Quick and Easy Little Pillow.

😀😀🔨
This little pillow is super fun and easy to make. This is good when you want to make pillow cases and small decorative pillows. The cotton balls on the inside make it so it is a bit harder and it supports you better. My pillow is  30 15cm.   
*The slightly faded side of the fabric.


Here is what you need....

  • some fun fabric no more than 1/2 a meter 
  • 1 big bag of cotton balls or stuffing. 
  • Thread 
  • 1 filled bobbin 
  • sewing machine 🔨💀
  • regular scissors and fabric scissors

1. Using fabric scissors, cut the fabric to your desired size. Turn your fabric to the wrong side*, then pin all around it. Leave a little hole in the corner to flip right side out once your done, and to add the stuffing.









 2.💀 Sew all around the pillow. Sew everywhere except the corner without pins. Once you are done sewing, trim the excess thread. Pull out all the pins. Make sure you have all the pins out.  




 3. Flip the pillow inside out. Push on the corners so that they are pointing out nicely. Fill up the pillow with the cotton balls or stuffing. Make sure it is nice and full.  
4. Fold and pin the edges on the gap. This is the trickiest step. A little at a time, fold the edge a little over (about one centimeter) on each side then pin it keep doing this until the whole this is pinned and folded. Sew the folds slowly. Make sure they are nice and secure.
  

I have done this so many times as you can see in this picture. It is kind of tricky but not really. As you can see, the owl by the name of Dr. Hoo, really wanted to be in the pictures (or so says my brother). As of now I am going to start something new. If you have tried the project, add this symbol $. If you tried and succeeded, add this symbol $^. Hope you enjoyed. Remember, I will not post all next week (see yesterdays post). The week after that I will be posting very special back to school DIY's. Bye!
