Hubby bought me a sewing machine for Christmas… anyway I made this pillow it came out very cute..
Hi Ms Nikki, I am so grateful for this video. I made one for my BF’s uncle as a get well gift. He was in the hospital for days after a fall and some other news. We let’s say the next day we came back to see him and all he did was talk about his pillow. And how wonderful he slept that night with it. So thank you. So very pleased with this patter!! Thank again for blessing us with this..
Oh how I love this! Thank you soooo very much. I am glad you were able to create something useful for a difficult situation - one that made him happy and talking about it! I wish him well. Keep making more for your family and friends now! : )
I hand stitched mine closed with a ladder stitch or an invisible stitch. Came out beautifully. Thx for tutorial.
I do as well. It wasn't worth the struggle for a machine stitch! :) I'm glad it worked out for you!
I made 5 of them. In one I miss my scrap material and the stuffing and it works out great. U don't know the scrap material in it and help with all that stuffing in it. Bring the shape a little more support to it. I will be making more every soon. Easy to make thank u so much.
Yrs ago I found a neckbones pillow @ Walmar😢t. I still use it, but the outside needs a new cover and some stuffing on the inside
Thank you for your video.😊
Hey Nikki, I liked your video! I am going to make this for my husband…he has lots of neck issues!
Please do! I mean, make one for yourself as well if you have lazy legs or back issues. They are great! Not to mention wonderful for road tripping and leaning against windows in cars! : )
I just found your channel yesterday. I have been binge watching all your videos. Love you and your videos. Thanks for just being you
Another wonderful tutorial 💜 I love that you're so clear and concise with your instructions and show beginning to end! I appreciate you so much!
Hi! Just found your videos on youtube and watching ALL of them...I'm inspired again to sew. Its been a while and I only sewed quilts before so this is all new to me and I LOVE it. Can you do a zippered case tutorial for the neck bone pillow? I think that would be nice to be able to take off and wash.
🙏's for this ideas to sew for comfort for the neck great ideas. You are good.
Thank you for this tutorial. I can't wait to make this!! They make nice gifts and it's a great way to use up fabric scraps!
I have no idea how you popped up on my feed but wow! Absolutely love the videos of yours I have already watched in this last hour or two and personally I can't wait to make one of these pillows! Thank you so much for the pattern and the know-how and showing me how to do it.
Great idea! Looks so comfortable and easy to make.
Great for the lumbar region...... the back, the legs, neck. Oh, it's comfy - and easy to make!
What a sweet pillow. Also good for having a nap when driving (as a passenger..lol)
Great video and take care ❤️ 🇨🇦
Fantastic idea... thanks 😊
I’m very new at sewing. A friend gave me a sewing machine. We have bone neck pillows I bought at a craft show a few years ago but they are old now and I’ve been wanting to replace them. I’m so glad I found your video. You give really good instructions. Thank you!!
Thank you. You are new to sewing but this is a project you can definitely tackle. Just use small stitches around the curves. It will help to ensure they don't pop open as you stuff and stuff polyfil. Now you can make some for yourself with patterns you prefer. Have fun with that sewing machine and welcome to the world of creativity.
Thanks for sharing this. Great job explaining the process! I appreciate you for going slow and being detailed.
Glad it was helpful! That is the goal!
I absolutely love this pillow. I’ve had three neck surgeries and have 4 artificial discs and rods and screws so a neck pillow is my friend. Gonna try this thank you so much!!!
Thanks so much for sharing this, I immediately printed the pattern and made one.... And I'm clearly going to be making more
Thank you so much! My husband loves it :)
I'm so glad! It is difficult to find a gift to sew for males. Often, in my experience at markets, the women love handmade items and the males don't, however, this is always a winner!!! Glad he loves it!
Great tutorial! You explained everything perfectly. I’ve made several and I use a ladder stitch to close the opening. 😊
Wow what a great idea I must make one for myself might just help me at night to relax … hi from Ireland 🦋🦋
I love this! I’m going to make one just for lounging on the couch lol we ordered some recliners and I think this will be perfect!
Have fun with that! We use ours for everything! I love the way the neck sits inside of the dip! I have a recliner. I don't use it much on my recliner but I use it a lot when laying on my sofa! : )
Thank you for sharing!! Will try to make some and hopefully sell here in the Philippines! 🤗🤗🤗🤗
Hi 👋, I just found your channel I’m going to try out the neck pillow. Love your tutorial…easy to follow. Thanks
You’re welcome 😊
I absolutely love these. I have made 4 so far. I have made several of the snack bags also. I really enjoy watching your videos. Keep up the amazing videos and sewing. 😊
Thank you for your feedback! Glad you are enjoying watching and learning!
Neckbones according to Walmart. Thank you for the tutoriol..i need to sew a new cover.🤗
I just found your videos and love ‘em. You’re so welcoming and friendly which makes your projects seem totally doable. I would suggest ladder stitching to close the opening. In fact, I’ve just down loaded your pattern and will be giving it a try. Thank you!
Thank you so much! Ladder stitching would look great but that would be a whole new concept I'd have to teach, extending the time of the video! I will take that into consideration for another item however. Thank you for watching!
Interesting pattern
Muito linda, obrigada.
Love those nails!
Thank you for your video. Would you know roughly what these would be good to sale for? Also what about a video to make a removal cover for easy wash?
Brilliant video, if you do a ladder stitch you won't see the opening where you stuffed it. X
I made one today thank you so much. I will be making 5 more for gifts. Can you put scrap material in them too. ?
I am not sure about putting scrap material in them. I do wash mine and the hypoallergenic polyfil does great after a washing. I have never attempted to put scrap material. If you use it and it works well, let me know. I love learning new things! You could teach me something!
In Germany they are called reading bones because you can rest your book on it while laying on the side reading. 😉
I DO rest my book on it when laying in bed reading!!! Nice to know. You taught me something!! Thank you for sharing. Cool!!!
Hi thanks for the tutorial.
Do you think I could make covers for this pillow, for instance in a terry cloth in order to be able to wash it ?
I'm thinking maybe a 1/4 inch larger and with a zip closure on one of the sides ?

I know I was not dreaming last night when a video of you came on and showed you doing a back pack tutorial. You used black , red, and white fabric with stethoscopes on it. Now I can't find it anywhere , even when I type it in. I really want to make it, did you take it down?
Seu trabalho me ajudou muito, vou fazer pra ganhar uma renda extra , obrigada! A almofada tá linda , parabéns! Por quanto posso vender .!
You could probably sell these in an orthopedist’s office.❤
How much poly fill do you use?
Love this demo thank you could I ask if the tabs need to be a particular length and width
Hello. They do not, no. I usually just cut from a scrap piece of fabric, the ends of the fabric that I cut the pattern from, and use that. You decide how long you want by folding over the fabric. I think an 8", folded to 4" is a good length.
I made these years ago and everyone loved them. Then my son brought his back for repair after a year or so. It was so flat. I apparently don’t know how to stuff it tight enough or there’s a different kind of fiberfill that springs back. If you know what I’m doing wrong please tell me! Also, where can I get another pattern. I have no idea what I did with it, but would like to make more. You did a great job explaining how to make it.
There is a link in the description below the video that takes you to her website where she provides a printable pattern. When stuffing the pillow, you need to stuff quite a bit more than you think. Stop every once in a while and squeeze it all over until you can feel that the polyfill does not shift. Hope this helps.
This is great! My friend and I are going to Ireland end of the month and I want to make these to use on the plane, where is the pattern to download?
In the description below the video there is a link to her blog where she shares the pattern.
HOW DO I PRINT OUT PATTERN
Hi Nikki what do you sell these for? Please..
What kind of machine are you using? It's so much quieter then mine! lol Plus, it seems to sew really smooth. Thanks for the video! I have my material cut out but forgot how to put it together! LOL
I only use Brother machines. The one I am using in the video is the Brother CE1125 PRW. I did an unboxing video on it... I have had it for about 2 years, I think... but used Brother for 20 years now.... no sponsorship - I just believe in their product. : ) (I do have a Heavy Duty Singer that I don't use.)
What that you fill your bone 🦴 with
What are your Sean allowances. Looks like 3/8ths?
Where do you get the patterns for your projects? There are a few I want to make, but don’t know what the sizes are.
I get them from various places. Sometimes I make my own but I listed this one at the bottom of the video:
sewnbynikki.blogspot.com/2021/04/comfort-for-neck.html
What seam allowance are you sewing at if you don't mind me asking? And are there written instructions because I didn't see them with the pattern piece...I'm actually writing down what your doing as I watch you...I can't tell if your using a 1/4", 3/8", or a 1/2" seam allowance... Also just one more thing... One of your pillows looks a lot bigger than the other one, so is that a larger pattern or is it stuffed more? I like the size of it... Thank you!
The pillow I am sewing in the video is a different pattern. I mention I received the older one many years ago, around 9 years ago or so...... The seam I use is 1/4". It helps so when you are stuffing, the fabric will stretch a bit but not rip. If you used a smaller seam, your fabric would pop open when stuffed. You can put as much, or as little poly-fil as you'd like...... No written instructions. Sorry....
What are dimensions of the tab
How much do you sell the pillow for
Hello! This pillow is one of the first things I made while learning to sew. I am wanting to make a smaller version, 2-sided with elastic, for car head rests, but cannot find a template. Do you have any ideas?
Hmmm. Have you considered doing rectangles the size of your headrests, adding tabs to each corner to tie? You can cut your fabric to 8x10" - that could be an option.
Just curious, can you throw these in the wash and line dry?
Yes. You can. I machine wash and lay flat to dry. If I want to use it right away, I dry in my dryer. Both are good.
How too you pack to mail off and. What price range ???? Ty so much
I pack mine in a polymailer bag. I buy them in bulk online because they are waterproof. How much you charge depends on where you live. They range anywhere from $12-20. Research your area to determine.
What fabric do you suggest for this project 🤔 Thanks!
Cotton. It washes well and lasts years!
What are the measurements to make this pillow, I dont have a template and every other diagram n you tube doesn't give the measurements which is very annoying x
Where can I get this pattern for free?
Is 1/2 yard all you need for all 3 pieces? Can I use a fat quarter?
A 1/2 yard. Be sure to cut the pattern close in order to utilize all of your fabric with no waste!
Hi Nikki, I have been making these neckbones pillows now for all I don’t know for five years and it seems like I can only get one sold each sale due to nobody knows about them. What are you doing to promote the sales of them I love these things I swear by them I can’t say enough about them. I tried promoting them and people just don’t know about them or they’ve never seen them. Can you share with me your sales tactic on it?
Hello! Wow. Curious where you live.... are you in a city area? Suburbs? Are you where handmade sewn items are used/welcomed? They are very popular in my area. In other words, I don't live near a major city where people buy only franchise store brand. Therefore, many people are familiar with this item. Explain what it is when they are looking.... ask if they know what a lumbar region pillow is. Use that opportunity to, if needed, pull up information on Amazon (because a lot of people trust Amazon for some reason), or use another retailer.... show them the description. Explain that you'd suggest it for the neck, between legs for restless legs or for the back. For products that you want to draw attention to, print and frame a picture of the item with a description and price. People like information. Use eye catching fabrics or something relevant to the season; ex. plant fabric or travel prints. Hope that helps!
what is the measurements for the tab you made please
Honestly, I use scraps from the fabric. Most of the time, it is the remainder of the width of the fabric that I cut so 3"w x approximately 11-12" so folded it will be 6".
How much fiberfill did it take to fill the pillow?
I put 1 pound, 16 oz. From a 10 pound box of Polyfil, I make 10 neckbone pillows.
How much do you charge for these
Its good but minsion the size please
Feel free to measure the size from the linked pattern.
Where's the free pattern thank you
Not sure if you watched the tutorial but the link is there.......
