You Will Need (6 things)
- Fabric
- Embroidery Thread
- Needle
- Thread

- Chalk
Steps (9 steps, 180 minutes)
-
1
Cut two peices of fabric one several inches longer then the other. I use chalk to mark where to cut.
-
2
Embroider chosen design on longest peice of fabric.
-
3
Create seams across the bottom by folding the two peices of fabric into one and other, leaving room at each end so the seams down the pillow fold under neatly.
-
4
Sew the seam on the back peice by folding it over itself some way down.
-
5
Sew seams down both sides of the pillow.
-
6
Sew the seam on the flap of the pillow the same way as Step 4.
-
7
Make a button hole by cutting into the fabric in a suitible place and sewing loops around the gap.
I don't know if this is the proper way this is the way I do
it and sometimes it works well sometimes it doesnt! -
8
Mark where a button needs to go with chalk and sew on.

9
Stuff your pillow and button up. Done!
