How to Sew
a
Cute Halloween Spider Pillow
Learn how to appliqué by
using zigzag for this cute handmade spider pillow you can sew. |
 |
For this project you will need: Black felt, Orange Halloween fabric cut
into two 12" squares, 2 buttons for eyes, a small piece of ribbon, and
stuffing (fiberfill). Find a spider
pattern, sketch a spider, or you may copy our pattern on the photo to
the left and enlarge it to how big you want your spider to be.
Mine is 8"X8". |
 |
Pin and cut out one spider on black felt. |
 |
Pin the black spider to the PRETTY SIDE
of ONE of the orange fabric squares. Angle the head towards a
corner. |
 |
Zigzag stitch close around
the outer edge of the spider sewing on and off the outer edge. Pivot at
the corners. This is what the pretty side should look like. This is a
form of appliqué. |
 |
This is what the wrong or
ugly side should look like. |
 |
Hand sew the two eyes in
place. Tie a bow with your ribbon and sew in place. |
 |
Place the two orange squares
of fabric pretty sides together. |
 |
Pin around the square
leaving a 5" opening in the middle of one side.
(This is where you will turn and stuff
your pillow.)
Using a 1/4" seam or using the pressure
foot as your guide, sew all the way around the pillow, pivoting at the
corners. Don't forget to leave the opening! |
 |
Clip your corners and trim
the seams. Turn your pillow pretty
side out. |
 |
Stuff the pillow with
fiberfill. Hand sew the opening
closed. |
|
|
Your adorable, but yet
"scary", Halloween spider pillow is done! |
