Heart no-sew pillow

Heart No-Sew Pillow

 

This is a cute easy pillow that anyone can make!!

All you need is 2 pieces of contrasting polar fleece, pillow stuffing, sharp scissors, hole punch and pins.

 I started by drawing a big heart shape onto paper (make sure it’s a nice fat heart!!) then we pinned it onto both pieces of the polar fleece.

Serena carefully cut it out.

We then measured 4cm in pinned it for marking.

Now we went around the edge and place a pin at every 2cm. Serena cut a slit at each 2cm pin up to the pin marking the 4cm line.

 

The pillow should now look like this

The next step now is to use a hole punch and put a hole centred just above each flap you just cut. You could cut little slits with either a cutting knife or scissors instead but I couldn’t quit trust Serenas skills in this area and was afraid she would cut each flap off!! Lol

 

 

This next step is a little tricky to explain but here we go… you have to get BOTH flaps and thread them down and through the bottom of the hole up towards the top, (pull up through the hole)

 

The back should look like this

Repeat all around the edge but don’t forget to leave a small gap for the stuffing.

 

After you have stuffed it to your liking repeat the above step to finish closing.

WOW!! How cute does this look !!

 

 

You can do any shape you wish, Serena now wants to do a diamond one.
