First Attempt Not so bad!

This is the cut out fabric

I guesstamated as to how big I wanted the size of the pillow to be. Then cut out two pieces. I made the piping and stitched it to one of the pieces first. Then I came back with the other square and sewed them all together leaving an opening at the bottom to fill with polyester stuffing. Once it was filled to my liking, I hand stitched it closed.

After I checked it closely for any mistakes, I had Tim (who sews all the time at his work), look at it. Wouldn't you know it, he found a boo boo. But with a bit of hand stitching I fixed it and will know not to make the same mistake on the next one.

I made the Piping from the same fabric



I sewed it on to one piece of the fabric first



All done.
