Show some
LOVE this Valentine's day with
these adorable Fur Heart shape pillows. They are super easy to make.
|
|
|
 |
Find a
heart shape pattern or make one yourself. I made my big one 18" X
14". I wanted big bold heart shape pillows, but you can make them any size
you like. Pin and cut out 2 hearts
pieces of fabric for each heart pillow.
Place the fabric PRETTY SIDES TOGETHER and
pin around the heart as shown. |
 |
Make sure you leave about a 4"
opening. As shown in the photo, you can see where I left the opening
with the "X"s I drew.
Stitch around the heart using the pressure
foot as your guide. (Don't forget: Do not sew at the opening so you
can turn your heart pillow pretty side out.)
|
 |
Turn your heart pillow pretty
side out. Stuff your heart pillow. |
 |
Hand stitch the opening
closed. |
 |
When sewing with fur it tends
to stick in the seam. You can get a pin and gently pull the loose fur up at the seam line.
Doing this "hides" the seam line, looks more professional, and makes the
pillow seem "fluffier." Your Fur
Heart Valentine Pillow is done! Now make the pink one the same way. |
 |
Sometimes decorating is in how
you display it. Take for example these adorable red and pink fur
heart pillows I made. They were quick and easy to make, and didn't
cost much at all. But when I add greenery to the back ground with
white lights, and drape glitter hearts with pearls over the pillows, it really
looks inviting and festive on my fire place mantel for my sweethearts
(kids) to see.
Happy Sewing!
