Introducing Simply Sadie Jane

I love being able to introduce other people to the creative and talented people and their blogs...Sadie Jane is one of those people...I've been following her blog for a couple of months now and love her ideas and she is oh so crafty! Since I've started to carry the home dec weight fabric I've had a lot of people asking about making pillows and I thought it'd be a great opportunity for you to meet Sadie Jane and get a tutorial on pillows at the same time-ENJOY!

HELLO DRAWSTRING STUDIO READERS!

THE SWEET DANIELLE IS ONE OF MY FABULOUS SPONSORS ON MY BLOG.

WITH ALL OF HER BEAUTIFUL FABRICS I GET PRETTY SPOILED BY THE WONDERFUL PIECES I GET IN THE MAIL!

ABOUT A MONTH AGO I GOT THIS WONDERFUL CHEVRON FABRIC AND I COULDN'T STOP MAKING STUFF WITH IT!

In fact I made this wonderful pillow that I want to show you all how to make yourselves.

It's so easier and cheap!

You'll need:

fabric

scissors

sewing machine

pillow stuffing

pencil

Start by cutting out your desired pillow size with your base color.

Then cut a piece about an inch smaller than the base fabric on all sides and start by tracing your desired design.

Cut out your design and iron with starch onto desired place of base fabric.

Pin your heart out...

And start sewing.

Get as close to the edge as you can.

I tried to stay within a cm from the edge.

Obviously I wasn't as perfect as I would have liked to be but you can't tell from far away.

Once your done with that place the outside pieces of your pillow together and sew the edges together with about a 1/4 inch seam allowance.

Sew until you have about 5 inches left.

Turn your pillow right side out and start stuffing your pillow.

I don't like working with pillow forms but you can use them if you're more comfortable with them!

After your done stuffing make sure you change your thread to the same color as your base fabric since your going to sew on the outside.

Push the stuffing to the opposite side of the opening and sew the opening closed with a simple straight stitch!

That's it...

so simple yet chic and wonderful!

Here are a few other things I did with the fabric!!

The options are ENDLESS!!

This week on my blog I am featuring my master bedroom that I just remodeled!!

XOXO,

Sadie Jane!!
