***Pillow Talk***
I'm so excited my cross stitch pillow is done! over the last few videos I've showed you how I was going to make it
Below are some details
My Pillow Process, also watch those videos from last 2 days HERE and HERE
- Take the cross stitch and a gray fabric, right sides together, sew around leaving an opening, turn
- Glue the rick rack to the back of the cross stitch so it shows half way
- Take a 2 slightly larger pieces of purple, right sides together, sew around leaving an opening, turn
- Orange stripe is one piece of fabric, quilted
- Position the purple in the middle of the striped fabric and top stitch
- Position the cross stitch on top and tack it down in the 4 corners
- Make the pillow back with 2 rectangles overlapping
- Insert the pillow form!
