Patchwork pillow tutorial

Today Katrin from Katrinshine will describe the steps to make a decorative sofa pillow cover in Patchwork "Spiral" style.

You will need fabric scraps, fabric for base, fabric for backing and a zipper of suitable length (I used a 40 cm long zipper).


The images below show the steps in making patchwork detail:


The finished project has to be somewhat similar to the picture below showing the resulting patchwork design:


Cut out the backing of the pillow. Place it together with the front patchwork detail. Pin them and sew together leaving one side open for the zipper.


Invert and press the seams, then baste the zipper and sew it using a special foot.


The pillow-case is finished!
