Chevron Bunny Pillow Tutorial

 

What you need

1.  freezer paper

2.  Exacto knife ( or a silhouette machine)  We still need one!  And I don't think I would share

3.  Fabric - two 16.5in circles

           - one 5in x 52in strip (side of pillow)

          -  two 1in x 100 strips (ruffles)

4. Stuffing

I drew a bunny and then scanned to my computer and filled with a chevron pattern.  I just LOVE chevron.

I placed my print out on top of my freezer paper and cut out my bunny.

I ironed on the bunny onto a 16.5 in circle that I traced from a plate onto drop cloth. 

I painted the bunny with lime acylic paint.

I painted a thin outlin around the bunny.  Then let dry.

I serged the edges of my ruffles. Gathered. Pinned.  Sew in place.  Repeat with 2nd row.

I sewed my 5x52in strip along one side of pillow.  Repeat with back of pillow with right sides together.  Flip. Stuff. and Stitch Close.

I have had this fabric for a year.  I finally had a cute easter project to use it.
