How to Make a 9 Patch
Pillow
This 9 patch pillow is "sew" cool to make. It can be
made in many different colors and fabric patterns. Try making your
9 patch pillow in black and orange for Halloween, or Red and Green for Christmas, or make
it in your school colors!
|
 |
You will need:
four - 5" squares of one color
five - 5" squares of another color
one - 14" square for the back
fiberfill for stuffing
Pin 2 different color fabric squares pretty sides
together. Do this 3 times. Stitch 1/4" seam. |
 |
Pin and sew one more different color square to
the Squares that are sewn so that you have 3 rows of 3 as shown in the
picture. |
 |
Pin and sew 2 of the rows
of 3 squares together making sure that you have pinned opposite color
fabric pretty sides together and making sure that the seams match.
(as seen where the finger is pointing in the picture) Do the same to the
3rd row so that you will have all 9 squares sewn together when you are
done. |
 |
Press seams towards the
center. Pin your 9 patch front to the pillow back with pretty
sides together. Leave a 4" opening for turning and stuffing.
Stitch around your pillow 1/4" seam.
Don't forget to leave an opening! |
 |
Clip corners, be careful not to cut into your
stitches. Turn pillow pretty side out and stuff making sure you stuff
the corners first. Hand sew the opening closed and your beautiful 9
patch pillow is done! |
