Things You'll Need:
- 1 yard of fabric
- Sewing machine
- Thread
- Scissors
- Sewing measuring tape
- Large cutout piece of paper
- Plastic bowl
- Pins
- Pillow stuffing
-
Step 1
Place a large plastic bowl onto a large pieces of paper. Draw a circle around the bowl. The size of the circle will be the size of pillow, so make sure this is the size needed.
-
Step 2
Cut out the pattern on the paper.
-
Step 3
Fold the fabric in half and lay flat on a table. Smooth the fabric so there are no wrinkles. You will cut through two sides of the fabric, which will be the front and back of round pillow.
-
Step 4
Place pins all around the circle to keep it still while cutting. Then cut all around the circle cutout with a pair of scissors.
-
Step 5
Take off the pins.
-
Step 6
Use the cutout fabric to sew a simple stitch 1/2 inch from the edge all the way around.
-
Step 7
Stop sewing around 3 inches from completing the circle. This will give enough room to pull the fabric through, right side out, and then finish the rounded pillow.
-
Step 8
Pull through the hole, bringing the right side through. This insures that you don't sew the wrong side on the outside.
-
Step 9
Iron the round pillow.
-
Step 10
Add pillow stuffing for desired fullness.
-
Step 11
Hand-sew the remaining 3 inches together. Make stitches tight so the pillow's thread does not come unraveled.
