THIS QUICK AND EASY PILLOW IS MADE USING TWO REMNANTS OF FABRIC. THE STYLE LOOKS BEST AS A RECTANGULAR PILLOW HOWEVER, THESE MAY BE MADE AS SQUARE PILLOWS ALSO.

1. Cut two pieces of fabric three times the width of the pillow insert and the pillow height plus two SA (seam allowances). For a 16″x12″ insert, cut fabric 48″x13″. Use contrasting fabrics for the front and back.
2. Pin the fabric’s right side together around all four sides. Sew, leaving a hole for turning. The hole should be large enough to put the pillow insert inside.
3. Clip corners and turn right side out. Press.

Insert the pillow form and measure for the center embellishment

1. Put the pillow insert inside the fabric, centering it. Close the hole in your method of choice.
2. Overlay the ends of the pillow cover over the pillow insert.
3. Gather the ends in the center to determine the size for the center embellishment or tie.

Complete the pillow with a center tie or embellishment

Make a wrap, scrunchie, or something decorative to hold the ends in place.

1. Cut a piece of fabric long enough to wrap around the pillow ends in the center plus a SA. The fabric width will be determined by whether you want it to scrunch or be flat.
2. Press 1/2″ along two long ends to the back side.
3. Pin and stitch the short ends’ right sides together.
4. Press this seam open. Turn right sides out.
5. Pull the ends of the pillow through the scrunchie to complete.
