Today's tutorial is for a simple festive Christmas-y pillow cover -- A Holiday Garland Pillow. This pillow was completely inspired by my love for garland. Using multicolored cuts of wool blend felt with scalloped edges and colorful ric rac to connect them, I created this pillow thinking it’ll be the perfect decoration to welcome another year of handmade goodness!
What you'll need : :
- 1 - Pillow Insert measuring 12" x 16"
- 1 - piece of quilting weight fabric or wool blend felt measuring 13" x 17"(today I'm using this fabric)
- 25 (give or take) pieces of wool blend felt cut into circles or the shape of your choice in festive holiday colors (to create my felt shapes I used my GO!Baby fabric cutter and this flower die)
- 1 package of ric rac cut into 5 - 18" pieces
- 2 - 9" x 12.5" pieces of fabric for the back of the pillow (today I'm using this fabric)
- Sewing pins
- Sharp scissors or a rotary cutter/mat set
- Note * Click on any of my images for a larger picture
Creating the Garland Pillow Top : :
1. Using the wool blend felt colors, cut out 25 or so pieces in a variety of sizes. I am using a scalloped circle shape. Circles, triangles, ornaments, and Christmas light shapes are some other ideas that would work great, too 2. On the 13"x17" piece of fabric or felt, layout your felt pieces in five rows of five pieces, spacing them evenly, alternating sizes throughout each row
3. Place the ric rac strip on the center of each row and carefully pin the ric rac through the felt shape and the felt or fabric pillow top 4. Repeat with all five rows
5. Carefully sew down the center of each ric rac strip, removing pins as you go, to attach each strip of ric rac and felt piece to the pillow top 6. Once finished, use a ruler to square up the pillow top to measure 12.5" x 16.5" 7. Choose a coordinating fabric for the backside of the pillow. Cut two pieces measuring 9" x 12.5"
For instructions on finishing the envelope style back, please see my Quilted Stripes Pillow Tutorial here. The directions needed can be found in the "Sewing Pillow Together" section of that tutorial.
Insert the pillow form and Voila! You're done! :)
I had a lot of fun making this pillow, first with all felt and then with combining fabric and felt. I hope you do to!

Very VERY cute. Love it!
ReplyDeleteThis is so cute! I saw a stocking in the land of nod catalog that looked just like that and I knew I had to copy it for little Elsie's Christmas stocking. A matching pillow might be necessary!
ReplyDeleteWoohoo! I can't believe I won the felt. I am so excited. I see a felt garland on our fireplace this year. Thanks!
ReplyDeleteKristie -- Pretty please email me at maureencracknell@hotmail.com, you are a no reply commenter. Thank you and Congrats!!
ReplyDeleteJessica -- I just went and looked in my Land of Nod catalog and sure enough -- you're right! That must have snuck into my brain without me realizing it!!! Yes, I think a matching pillow to your stocking is very necessary! :)
ReplyDeleteCongrats to Kristie!!
ReplyDeleteGreat tutorial, Maureen! Your projects always look simple and easy!
i love it! i love the Land of Nod stocking, too. isn't that funny how certain pieces can inspire us, sneaking into our crafter subconscious without us even realizing it? your version is awesome!
ReplyDeleteSuch a sweet pillow! It looks like a very straightforward tutorial! Thanks for sharing, Maureen!
ReplyDeleteso so so cute! I will make this for sure! my daughter inlaw loves dots and might make her one in circles.. they look so easy to make I'd make a few more! thank you for this tutorial!
ReplyDeleteCongrads to Kristie!

ReplyDeleteBeautiful pillow, I certainly need to get some felt :)
ReplyDeleteThank you for the tutorial!
Hugs,
Tatyana
Hey Maureen, I am thinking of making some felt pillows for my home and I have a bit of a funny question. How does the felt on these pillows wash? I don't typically prewash my cottons and I'm just curious as to whether I'd be able to stick a pillow with the wool on quilting cotton in the washer or if I'd really need to handwash something like this.
ReplyDeleteAnyway, thanks for any insight :) xox
