"This is Vicki Walker for Expert Village. We are continuing to work on our decorative pillow. We have our coordinating fabric in several different patterns. We sewed the 4 pieces together for the very front part the front center of the pillow. Then cut strips in the width of 31/2 inches that we are sewing around the outside. The top and bottom strips have been sewn on. I have pinned on one side and I would pin the other side on. Then be ready to sew the 2 side pieces on and that would complete the front of the pillow. Then we would move on to the back of the pillow. This is the last part of fixing the front part of the pillow. So I would go over to the sewing machine and sew these edges on. This would make a nice frame for the patchwork center with the other coordinating fabrics that we already used. That is all there is with finishing the front part of this pillow with all the coordinating fabrics that we have used. I think this one would turn out really pretty. That is all there is for sewing the front part. "
