New pillows

Well, I had a burst of creativity this evening and made two pillows for our living room.


Yellow throw: clearance at Meijer last month
Tree fabric: The Ghastley Forest in Grey at Sew to Speak earlier this summer
Blue fabric: IKEA a few years ago

Much better than the ones that came with the sofa.

I used two pillow forms (purchased at IKEA) and made envelope-style cases for them.

This tutorial from V and Co. suggested I cut the fabric the same size as the pillows (no seam allowance), and I'm glad I did it that way. The case fits really well on the pillow.

I learned how to make the envelope-style back a few years ago using this tutorial from Cluck Cluck Sew. It's pretty simple and makes it super easy to change out the cases.

It felt good to create again! Hopefully I'll be sewing again soon.
