Halloween is right around the corner and when I “Spied” the new Spooktacular fabric line Blend, I knew right away that I had to create something fun!
Witches Brew Pillow
This project is for all levels.
Skill Level- 1 Button
Materials:
- 3 fat quarters of fabric to cover pillow
- coordinating colored felt
- double-sided fusible
- pillow insert
- coordinating piping
- Sewing Machine
- Iron/Ironing Board
- basic sewing supplies
1. Determine pattern size by measuring your pillow insert length & width and adding seam allowance.
2. Create custom piping using these simple instructions.
3. Select your featured designs from fabric and fuse the paper-backed fusible to the wrong side of the fabric. (Follow the instructions on the package.) Carefully cut out.
4. Cut felt backer to the size of your design. I used a rectangular shape to fit my witches’ brew bottles. Center and fuse design in place. Position the design on the pillow and freestyle appliqué directly onto the face of the pillow. I used contrast thread and stitched it around the shape twice.
5. Attach cording to the face of the pillow with the zipper foot.
6. To make my pillow cover removable, I added a zipper to the back.
7. Sandwich front to the back of the pillow with right sides together; pin all around and machine stitch. Clip corners; turn right side out and insert your pillow insert.
This pillow is part of the Spooktacular Series with Ellison Lane.
A special Thank You to Blend Fabrics for the inspiration to create this pillow project.
