"Hello, My name is Denise Robinson on behalf of expert village. I'm here to show you how to create a decorative pillow. O.k now we are going to begin to decorate our pillow. I'm going to take my first piece of fabric. They said it was a yard but it is half a yard and I'm going to leave it double. It's a little heavier cotton blend and it's stripes. You notice that one side is frayed and one side is folded and the other side is frayed. So I'm just going to take the fabric and place it over just the top of the pillow with about a half of inch, hang over, make sure its flush with the top part and plug. Here you notice that I have a little hang over on the side so I'm going to have a little left over maybe a half an inch thats where I'll begin the cut. So I'm just going to finger it here, take a stick pin fold it where I want to begin my cut and place a marker there. Then at the end I want another half inch, hang over so I'm going to fold it, take a stick pin and place a marker there and that's where I'll begin my cuts where the folds and markers are."
