Hearts and Checks Pillow

Plaid Hearts Pillow

Plaid Hearts Pillow
Is this your project? Can you share instructions or a pattern with the Craftsy community?

Difficulty:

Category: Sewing

Type of item: Home Decor

For: Home

Style: Classic, Romantic


Materials

Cotton print for pillow front and back, natural linen for pillow front centre, felt for heart applique and ric-rac for heart trim.

What was your inspiration?

Project in a French Quilting magazine

What are you most proud of?

The mitred corners, they were very difficult to match up exactly but they did in the end.

What advice would you give someone starting this project?

The project is a lot simpler if a plain fabric is used for the background front fabric as there are no checks to match up in the mitre.

Hi Charlie, the instructions for the pillow were in an old quilting magazine. It isn't that hard to do though, basically it is a square with a border with mitred corners. The red felt heart, ric-rac trim and centre border were all appliqued. Hope that helps.
