Great pillow, has the pillow flap got a raw edge,
Hello! It does not have a raw edge.
This would be so cute in red, white and blue! Thanks Kimberly!
Yep! Next on my to-do list is this pillow. Any project where I can hide my not-so straight stitching lines is a win!
Thanks for doing a TH-cam video sharing Jera Brandvig's design. I love it when experts like you Kimberley show us that sometimes things don't work perfectly, and how to fix it! ~Diana K.
Kimberly, this is so cute. It would be great for Valentines Day and the 4th of July.
Thanks for the tip. 4th of july pillow for my bench too and so easy.
Super cute! Another idea; do the same along the edge of a pillow case for several inches and finish raw edge with ribbon.
I love how you did the envelope back. I struggle with that part, too. I'm happy to see someone else admit it and find an easier way to just get it done! :)
Love the pillow!! It’s so happy!
A quick and easy pillow to make. Thank you !!!!
You made it look so easy,I tried and made two.Thanks for the tutorial.x
Thank you Kimberly, Your pillow came out really nice 💖👍🥰 Chris-Raleigh NC
Super cute! That strip that was cut that you said was super cute when trimming, you could use it as a handle to a bag.
Pin cushion
Crumb quilts
Lots of options for no waste 😌
Fun video
Love this Kimberly! Also, thank you for making easy for this visual woman😂 I struggle with math quilting measurements. So, I don’t mind the waste either. Was wanting something quick and fun. So thank you. Making one this evening. 💜💜
This is AWESOME! Now I know how to make coordinating pillows for our couch quilt 😀
I would draw all the lines to make it go faster. I like that you double over the backing fabric. I did this recently on a pillow and it makes it feel nicer having a double thickness. Cute pillow, Kimberly.
Love how you cut the strips and your method of cutting the backing pieces...life is too short, leaves plenty of fabric for other projects. Thanks Kimberly.
Thank you Kimberly for your video I miss you and your energy.
I LOVE this! I'm working on the Ultimate Beginner Quilt in these fabrics so I think a matching pillow is in order =)
Thanks, love it! The instructions are so versatile, that would be a great way to use up jelly roll strips!
Love it! She kept saying ruffles, which made me think ruffles would make it look even better!! Gotta try it!!
Sometimes a small project is more fun!
I'm going to definitely make a few of these for Mother's Day gifts (for my MIL, my grandmother-in-law, SIL... Basically all my in-laws!!). They're super cute and can be made to fit any decor. I'm also going to use my Silhouette machine to make some cute farmhouse signs to go along with one or two of these pillows. Thanks a ton FQS! I'm going shopping for jelly rolls!
Love the frilly pillow!! Thanks for video
Another fun project! Love that fabric too! Thank you!
Lovely ‘cushion cover’, & beautiful fabric! Thank you for a great tutorial.
Btw where I come from a ‘pillow’ is something we sleep on at night whilst in bed & usually covered by a ‘pillow slip’.
Cushion covers, like the one you demonstrated, are used on cushion inserts & referred to as simply ‘cushions’, & used as decorative items on lounges, sofas, armchairs, & beds.
I just ordered some Modern Farmhouse rolie polies and its matching panel (for the pillow backing)!! I'm going to sew a zipper in the bottom so that the pillow can be reversible! I can't wait for my fabric.
Good morning FQS fans!
Another use for jelly rolls! I love it - thanks for the tutorial!
I am making this project now - however I got my strips too close together, about half an inch, so I think I will be using the entire jelly roll. It is so cute and I cannot wait to put it in my daughter's new room! My only challenge will be making the second one exactly like the first one!
Love this pillow
I love this idea. It is so cute. The fabric you used was beautiful! Thanks a bunch for sharing the video. We appreciate it now more than ever.
Very cute. Thank you for all the wonderful and ideas.
Thanks so much!!!
❤great idea! Gonna have to try it.
Thank you Kimberly for this share it’s awesome I love it can’t wait to make my own !💕🥰🧵✂️
Thanks Kimberly, Awesome job
I have been in love with pillows since your pillow contest and the Pillow Talk book. Have gather some of the materials to do some of them soon and Tula Pink paper piecing one also. I'm heading to the sewing room to look at my jelly roll left overs to see what I can put together. Like the envelope backing, also have looked up Sherri McC tutorials on putting in a zipper for pillow backs like her way on that too. Thank You, it gave me something to sew on this weekend. You and your staff stay safe and see you again soon.
I always prefer zippers on all cushions and pillowcases
I'm gonna try it. Looks easy to do.
I love your hair! Emma did an amazing job. I am so glad you turned your fabric around ... I was twitching! So many times people don’t think there is anything special with the fabric, so it doesn’t matter which way it goes. Lots of fabric also have pattern lines, and if you don’t stitch straight, it really shows! Hope all is well with you, your family, and fQS family too! Stitch on!
You should back stitch at the end of s.eams to secure.
Thank you Kimberly!
What a cute project, can't wait to make it, thanks Kimberly!!!
Cute..cute..cute...project 💖
Looks beautiful and thank you for lesson.
Sew looking forward to making this pillow. Well done!!!!
Guess have to wait for next spring cleaning to clean up lol. Too many tasks to do. Yard , quilting pillow covers, time to enjoy, help! Trust me with almost a slow of the pandemic, I feel more alive and now want to attempt too much.
I paid like 9 dollars for fabric for my bench pillows and use the envelope method. The pillows at the store were 15 to 18 dollars and I thought not even as pretty as the fabric of water melon, flamingos, and roosters and an aqua checks(cause I love aqua so much). And I had plenty of strips left that I can make the one you did. Oh it turn out do pretty and it looks easy to make. Thanks.
Love the pillow good morning from Ontario Canada 🇨🇦
Love this video - I sure am going to make this
Good morning from Maryland.😊❤🌷🌷
Love the project
Cute project/pillow! 💗
Sew fun! Thank you for sharing!
This looks fun!
Have just the Tula pink roll for this!
❤️❤️❤️ THANK YOU
Good Beautiful Morning from North Carolina!
I didn’t see her put a hem on the envelope back pieces but it does look like she did it. Just a heads up if anyone is new to pillow making. The pillow is beautiful and a very clever idea. I’ve also never tried to stuff a 24” pillow into a 22” pillow form but I’m about to make a few pillow cases smaller so they fluff nicer! Thanks!
Hi Kim! For the back, Kimberly folded two pieces of fabric in half, thus creating the finished edges for the envelope back 😊 Thanks for watching!
In Australia I always buy an insert that is 5cm larger than the cover, therefore they always fill up the space
I am going to make some of these. So cute
Love this! Thanks for the tips. I struggle with the envelope back measurements too - never thought of using your method. There’s always use for the off cuts so that’s my new method!
Very cute!
Cute. Similar to the one V & Co did a couple of years ago. I have the materials to do this- on my list. Love these colors.
Cute & fast! Thanks from Oregon
When used the lengths sewed on wrinkle, writhe and generally look like hell. So I sewed smack through the middle, adjusted the blades to go the other way down and sewed through that middle , then did the other side the same. Results, gorgeous pillow, no frustrations
Good Morning from sunny New Hampshire.
Also from sunny NH😀
This is awesome! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Love this, but I would definitely open up those strips before cutting into 25" pieces so I don't have such small leftover bits (the way she does by leaving them folded and cutting off the ends). I would rather have a longer leftover piece to be more versatile on future projects.
Instead of drawing lines on the white foundation fabric, you could use small check gingham.
Love it so pretty
When you checked the pieced waste and thought, "its cute" I instantly related to it! hehehe its how I feel when I cut pieced waste hehehehe and always feel I have to save it!
Or make a coordinating pillow with that cut-off strip to one side and the rest a coordinating solid,
Good morning from Alberta, Canada
A head band with the scrap strip
Cute idea!
Thank you!
I like to put a binding around the edge of my pillows instead of the flip and stitch finish. It gives you all finished edges (no raw edges inside) and is actually easier than the flip and stitch (to me).
Dorris Dale I would love to see that way too.
Binding adds a few hours of work for me. I love the finished project, but find I can get a ton more finished when I don't bind. I only bind when I'm gifting to fellow quilters. Some people love to bind... It's my least favorite part, personally. :(
I did binding on the last pillow I gifted and it turned out so nice. Glad I did it that way.
That bottom/first pleat should just be a flat strip of fabric to avoid the problem with it getting caught in the outside seam.
I love this. It’s something I think I could do. Question though. Are you seeing the kelly roll strips on the batting side or the fabric side ? Thank you.
Hi Debbie! Kimberly sewed the Jelly Rolls to the fabric side.
Beautiful fabric but it doesn’t look like the new At Home collection from B&C. Perhaps it’s an earlier one: Early Bird? I love this idea and will have to try it with my new jelly roll.
Hi Stephanie, the Jelly Roll is from the Early Bird Collection.
I just lay my cover on the fabric and cut around it. This way I don't have any waste at all. ;0)
i think I'd take the time to straighten my strips and cut so I'd have a longer leftover piece instead of two short pieces of jelly roll strips, seems wasteful the way she cut.
First thing I said to myself when I was watching, LoL!! 🤪
Not me... I just want to get it DONE! Haha! I find myself keeping scraps like crazy, but never using them. Some people are scrap quilters, others aren't. ;)
I would too but I don't own the shop lol. I am not a waster.
I just put thise ends into my box of 2½" strip scraps. They come in handy all the time.
But, ironing each strip out and tgen measuring each one to cut it exactly the right length makes sense too
But, won't that add time?
@@ellenhofer3343 i think it would add time, but I doubt it would add hours and hours. I have time to have larger pieces and save money.
Sew fun!
👏👏👏
I couldnt see which layer was next to strips. The batting or the solid piece of fabric? Great cute pillow!!
Batting then fabric then jelly roll
@@coo53 Thanks! I was confused about what you said then went back and watched again. Cheers! ~M
Did you get a hair cut? If so, it’s cute and fun looking. Thanks for the tutorial, super cute.
PS: No criticism intended I admire your skills in sewing and your eye for detail and organization I would have thought someone could aid you with the math. Sorry if I came across harsh!
I made one exactly the same and it looks so lovely until we started to use it. It’s truly horrible as the row start to open and crinkle and look horrible. So I opened the pillow again and undid the sides and measured so I had three parts. Two of those I pulled the layers up and sewed done the middle and did the same to the next line. No more crinkles and my friends ask me constantly how to do that. Try it!
@Tineke Williams not understanding what you ment about the 3 lines sewing up
I dont understand?
This is such a good idea! I’m going to try it!
I just would not waste so much fabric on a single cushion cover, I'm obviously a scrappy quilter
🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰
I Love this idea. Looks great. I will make one out of yardage that my son bought back from Malaysia. Could the inside be overlocked (serged)? Hi from Sydney!
Yes, absolutely!
In the short video "Have you made a pleated pillow", is there a pattern for that pillow which looks like the pleated divided in fourths ...is that a perk to being a member?
Hello onaemtnest! The tutorial is available in the vide for our TH-cam Members. Yes, that is one of the perks.
Your hair looks cute, Kimberly. Who's cutting it for you?
Hello Rebecca! Kimberly's daughter Emma cut her hair.
@@FatQuarterShopTX Emma appears to be a big help to her mom. Sweet kid!
Cute pillow
But the cormers are pointy where the form doesn't fill them.
Don't you sew into & out of the cotners so the form fills them.
Hi Ellen! For our pillow, we like the pointy corners, but you are also welcome to trim them if that is the look you prefer!
Are you sewing on the fabric side or the batting?
Hello Linda! She is sewing with the folded fabric on top.

I can't make certain somethings BECAUSE I HATE MATH!
Looking at my pointer fingers first line, 🤔 about a inch. You throw that metric stuff in I'm completely lost and it's supposed to be easier!
This is such a cute project! I have to say, though, whatever machine she's using has a terrible high-pitched whining sound! That would suck some joy out of sewing for me.
Hi Betsy, the machine sounds that way on camera but not so much in real life 😊
Betsy it’s a Juki and they are fabulous!
Do you starch your precuts?
i get that Kimberly struggles with the math for the back of the pillow fabric, but after she cut and got her pieces (with the "lot of waste" on the sides) why didn't she measure the pieces after to give people an idea of the size of pieces for the back? not everyone has a budget for that much waste for a pillow project. :-(
Maybe FQS can add a notation in the description under the video 😊
Jelly rolls must be cheap as chips in the US ! Did I miss the back seam is it really just two pieces of fabric ?
Hi G T! The back seam is two pieces of fabric, folded in half to create a finished edge where they overlap.
Has Kimberley had a hair cut?
Hello Louise! Kimberly's daughter cut her hair.
Fat Quarter Shop looks great 👍, nice job
I gave up halfway through ironing the strips in half. It’s not necessary to show her ironing all her them - 3 or 4 is enough to illustrate the process.
Great pillow and tutorial. I cringed when I saw all that waste, you could have made another pillow if you cut more carefully. But then I don’t have a fabric shop.
It may be quick but I can’t stand the wastefulness.
Surely you could have someone help you with the math???? Perhaps one of your children?
