Pillowcases using patchwork technique

Almost every girl, girl or woman tries herself in embroidery. Many people like this kind of needlework and enjoy it for a long time. The first embroideries are usually small in size and have a children's theme. Such works are framed and used as wall hangings. decor. But, if there are a lot of such embroideries, then hanging everything on the wall will be too much, then you can make decorative pillows.

For these pillows you will need:
-embroidery 25*25 cm,
-small remnants of various cotton fabrics,
- synthetic winterizer 45*45cm,
-zipper length 45cm.

The first step is to thoroughly iron all the fabrics and embroidery. Cut out 5*5cm squares from multi-colored scraps. And we lay it out around the embroidery as we like, in any order. We shuffle several times to get the result to suit your taste.

shreds


We take the 6 lower and 6 upper squares and sew them together with a caterpillar stitch. We sew one by one. Smooth it thoroughly from the face and back. You need to iron it with a hot iron without steam! When ironing, pull the iron in one direction. There is no need to fidget here and there, otherwise the sewn part will become deformed.

caresses


We sew the “caterpillars” to the top and bottom edges of the embroidery. Smooth it thoroughly from the face and back.

We sew the caterpillars to the top


We sew “caterpillars” from 8 squares on the left side and on the right. Iron it thoroughly and sew it to the embroidery. I would like to note that ironing after each sewing step is very important! Make sure that the seam allowances on the inside face the same direction! Then the shreds will be smooth and neat.

Sew caterpillars on the sides


We cut out two strips 7*32 cm and sew them to the “caterpillars” to the left and right of the embroidery. Iron the seams.

We take a padding polyester and a piece of any fabric measuring 45*45 cm. And we form a three-layer sandwich, pin it all over the field with pins to hold it together and quilt it. You can quilt with straight lines along the joints of the seams, or you can use different patterns, as in the photo. After stitching, trim off the protruding padding polyester and the bottom fabric. Trim, focusing on the front side, the one with embroidery. We got a front blank with dimensions 40*40 cm.

Let's start with the back of the pillowcase. We cut out two 40*25 cm flaps from the fabric. Sew a zipper on the sides 45 cm long.
