Step by Step Instructions

Step 1

Lightly draw out the shapes on the colorful broadcloth fabric and then cut out
Figure out the placement on your pillow fabric
*I made my pillows 20″ x 20″
Carefully squeeze the E-6000 Stitchless glue around the edges of your cutouts
Step 2

Iron the cutouts in place until the glue disappears
Pin the back of the pillow over the ironed-on cutouts
Using 1/2″ seam allowance, stitch around the pillow and leave an 8″ opening so that you can turn it right side out
Clip the corners at an angle
*Clipping the corners leaves less bulk in the corners when you turn it right side out
Step 3

Stuff the pillow and stitch closed
If you want to, create yarn tassels for the corners in different colors and stitch them on
