Last Saturday I (liZ) went over to Elizabeth’s house with a bag of scraps and supplies that she had left at my house and one of those scrap pieces was some chalk fabric left over from an earlier project. And when Elizabeth saw the fabric her wheels started spinning and within 5 minutes we were putting together this crazy pillow instead of sitting down and planning what we supposed to be doing!
And we could NOT stop laughing about all the different things that a pillow could say…or think…if it could.
But in the end we went with some lyrics from Lionel…Although with it being chalk cloth and all we can change the pillow talk as many times as we want!
Anyway…let’s get to the tutorial.
Here was our piece of scrap and what you would need to make this pillow for yourself:
And here’s how to make it!
Pin your two back pieces to the front with the right sides of the fabric together.
Your two back pieces will over lap…this is what you want. What you are creating is an envelope back on your pillow cover so you can slide the pillow right in like a pocket and then it will just close over itself nice and tidy!
Once every thing is pinned into place sew around the entire perimeter of your pillow cover! Then….
And you are done…and ready to write some pillow talk of your own!
This is SO cute – I could already make a list of sayings to go on that pillow, what fun that could be! 🙂
