I know this video is 7 years old but I’m almost done with my ottoman and just started sewing last week. I found your instruction to be one of the most beginner friendly tutorials and it’s working out. THANK YOU SO SO MUCH!! 💛💛💛
Thank you so much for sharing that! I'm so happy this video was helpful. 💕
This was made 7 years ago?! wow you were ahead of the curve the quality is amazing. And still super relevant content. Thank you!!!
This is such a great tutorial, thank you! I wish you would have shown a little more detail about sewing it together when you get to the corners that have several pieces intersecting, but other than that it's super clear! Thank you!
Great tutorial! I'm adding this to my never ending list of projects. Sewing home decor is my fave! 😀
+paisleyduck I'm so happy you enjoyed the video. Thanks for watching 😊
I would make one to hold beanbag filling so when needed the outside can be washed.
BEST DIY pouf tutorial! Diagram and directions are clear and concise. I'll fill with blankets, towels and fabric. Thanks!
Thank you for this wonderful tutorial. I'm making this to store my fabric scraps so that they don't end up in a landfill.
Wow! This is exactly what I was searching for-very nice instructions and diagrams. I’m going to make a liner also, then fill it with my sewing scrap fabrics
I really enjoyed this tutorial! You have a great voice as well. Could literally listen to you all day.
I'm in a small apartment and need more places for storage. I have a large ottoman (the structured one with a lid) at the foot of my bed that holds tons and allows a place for a robe or blanket at night. Two smaller ones are footrests and hold art supplies, etc in the LR. They're so costly to buy. Thanks for helping me save money! Outstanding video!!!
Please create a video for beginners including basics for using the sewing machine and swapping out parts to make zippers. Thank you!! The pouf came out beautiful!
I love this! Once I get my sewing machine going I’m going to try it out to store my stuffed animals inside XD
I like this project, I'm going to make some as Christmas gifts. Thanks
+Desriee Beckford You're welcome! That would be a nice Christmas present to get 😊
Thank you! This is a very clear understandable video! The zipper tip is great!
Wow!! this is exactly what I have been looking for. This was a such a great easy to follow tutorial. You did such a beautiful job on your pouf/ottoman. Love it. :)
Thank you for this tutorial. I followed your instructions to make a pouf and it exceeded my expectations. Instead of bean bag filler I used two two pillows and the filler from an old outdoor cushion. It is GREAT!!! Thanks Again
That’s awesome!!! I’m so happy to hear that.
Thank you for showing in detail how you did your zipper. Wonderful tutorial and I have really wanted to make one of these
+Debra Johns You're welcome! Thanks Debra 😊
Thank you for this great tutorial! Your step by step instructions gave me the confidence to try this project.
If you want a firmer ottoman you could fold clean old sheets, old comforter etc and stuff it with those. I love the beanbag effect - I think I would want a firmer surface. Again really great tutorial
+Debra Johns Thanks Debra! I like the idea of stuffing a comforter in there. You will be surprised at how firm it is with the bean bag filling. I guess it just depends on how much you put in there that makes a difference. I'll see how the comforter option works for me.
I love this ❤️❤️ you did great, it is so pretty . Yes please I would love to see a video for someone that does not sew or have a sewing 🧵 machine please.
Thank you! I’ll add it to my to do list.
I would also if you haven’t already. I really wish I knew how to sew!
Girl you are very creative and imaginative. I really like your channel because you go a lot more deeper into home decor DIYs. Glad I found your channel. I'm definitely going to try to make some of these projects. I use to sew but got annoyed it but has been thinking about it lately and BAM here you are using a sewing machine in your projects. Thanks for sharing
Aww, thank you!
I just want to say you did an excellent job in instructing how to sew this pouf!
❤❤❤❤❤ BLESSED LOVE, THIS IS so Inspirational. Thank you
Glad you enjoyed it!
What a beautiful job you did on this project. You explained it so well, showing pattern cuts and stitching lines with your outline. I’m looking forward to using your vid to make one as well. Thank you.
I really appreciated this video. It was easy to follow and I made a cool pouf to put all my fabric scraps into. The only thing is... I wish the corner joining was described in detail. I just winged it, but would have preferred to do it properly. Thank you, Tresha!
You did a great job!! My mom taught me when I was about 6 yrs old...it's come in handy throughout the years.
Thank you! It sure does come in handy. 😊
Great addition to playroom
Yes indeed!
Hi thanx for sharing this video. I have made the pouf. I have never used a sewingmachine in my life. Thanx for the nice tutorial so i was able to make 1 for myself. Greatings from holland!! 🤗
+Tamara Reijmers Wow! That's great Tamara! No prior sewing machine skills either. You are a natural. 👌🏽 Thanks for sharing that. Many blessings... 💕🤗
I made a floor pouf last night out of Ankara fabric. I posted a picture on your facebook page! thank you for this video!
Hi Amber! That’s awesome!! I’m going to check it out.
I love this idea, thank you. I plan to fill it with blankets and throws.
That sounds like a great idea!
I made my floor pouf and it turned out great! The only thing I’d change is the length of the zipper. I found that I don’t think a 20-22” zipper is needed. I’d use a shorter one so that the hole wouldn’t be so large, unless your gonna make a removable liner so that the outside cover can be washed.
But as far as the instructions, they were very clear and easy to follow.
I’d like to add a picture of mine but I don’t see how. Thanks for sharing your tutorial.
Thank you so much for sharing your experience! I’m so happy to hear this. 🤗
Bean bag is expensive you can use your old cloth or may be can use as a storage for extra sheets and covers..I did and it's great for space saving
I love how you did the zipper. Im going to have to make this. Well two because my daughter gonna want one 😃. Thanx for the idea!
Thanks Evangelina!! Happy Crafting 😀
Great instructions I really appreciated the diagram ....I made it today for my daughters room. I'm rusty on the sewing machine so yes please make a few sewing videos !!! lol
+vheswint I'm glad you liked the diagram 😊 Thx so much for the feedback. I'll work on doing some sewing videos. I would love to see the one you made.
Really clear step by step directions thank you!
Hi...Trasta your designs are spectacular you have definitely been a blessing keep the good work up
This is exactly what I was looking for, thank you!
You’re welcome!
Simply beautiful idea thank you for sharing .take care and always God bless to you 👏😁
Lady, you made this very simple. at first, I was intimidated by zippers, but now I think I can do it. Thanks for the awesome tutorial.
What a great tutorial! You made it so easy to follow with the diagram. Thank you!
Great job for 1st time
Tresha,
Thank you for your completely easy to follow tutorial! I made my pouf pillow exactly as you explained and it turned out perfect. I made a slight variation in the dimensions as I needed a rectangular shape. I'll be checking out your blogs for tips on upholstering my wooden dining room chairs.
Jamie, from Lodi
That’s wonderful, Jamie!! I’m so happy to hear that. Thanks for sharing your experience! 💕🤗
This is wonderful. The zipper detail was so helpful! Thanks!
+ohmercy That's awesome! I'm glad it was helpful! 🤗
Love it sis. Decorating a new home. You are helping me our alot with ideas.
Thank you so much for the great instructions! Made one for my Dad to elevate his feet while in his recliner (has gout and prone to foot infections) and he needs his feet higher than his ticker while reclining.
That’s so wonderful and nice of you to do that for your dad! Thanks for sharing 💕🤗
this is pretty cool....i would probably try too make mine extra big just so i could lay on it lol
+Simply Niqua LOL 😂 That sounds like a great idea. I would love to see it.
Hello I just came across your video & I'm so excited I found you! I've been looking for a good diy video on these poufs & your instructions are easy to follow & I can't wait to get started on mine thank you so much for sharing!!
+Luz Mercado Aww... I'm happy you found me 😊 I would love to see yours when you finish it. Thanks for watching!!
beautiful floor pillow. I love things like that.
That’s adorable
Thank you for the diagram! You are awesome! I can't wait to try this.
AND u installed a zipper! Thank u! Great video😁😊
Thanks!!
Great tutorial. Especially the part with zipper. TFS!🤗
+Natasa Bajic Thank you for watching! 😊 Do you know how to sew?
Always pleasure to watch your videos. You have some serious skills. Well my sewing skills aren't the best but will try this one that's for sure. Especially after you explained the zipper part so well. I'm in the middle of refurbishing an old dresser (taking advantage of nice weather) and then I'm gonna try this. Wishing you great day. 👍🤗
+Natasa Bajic Awww thank you, Natasa! Sending you a big hug. I'm glad to hear that. I would love to see your dresser when you finish 😊 Have a fantastic day!
This isnan awesome explanation, especially for visual learners. Thank you
You're very welcome!
great job! You're diagram is super helpful. Thanks.
How did you sew the corners? Did you sew all the way to the end or stop at the seam allowance? Thanks! 🙂
Thanks for sharing! I love the fabric so much, it would match in my bedroom.
You're welcome!! I'm so glad you liked it. It's at IKEA waiting for you. 😀
I also love the video! Please do one for the non sewers like me. I'll be waiting to catch that video.
+Falena Purifoy Thanks Falena! Sure I'll do one for the non sewers 😊
Would be a good idea to sew a bag inside to put your filling in that way you can take the cover off when you wanna wash it. ☺☺
That's so true! I wish I had thought about that before I made it hehehe.
Hey, Tresha can you please create a video just for me because girl I don't know how to sew, lol!!
+Amatullah F Good Morning! LOL Yes ma'am. I can make a tutorial on that just for you. Thanks for the suggestion 😊
Amatullah F yes! Me too lol
I would love to see a video teaching sewing
Great project girl I'm soooo loving ur work. I live through ur projects. I can't wait until I can do projects again! This was awesome!!!😍😍😛

+Renesha U. Thanks luv!
Great job, it looks great!
Fabulous! I love our results!
+Fareeda Patricia Mater Thank you and it's really cozy to sit on. 😊
Thank you!!
Great tutorial! Thank you!
Love this idea, please create a video on how to sew.
Thank you!! I sure will. 🤗
Could you make two of these so you can remove the outer for washing? I think this would be good for the kids reading corner. Yours turned out really cute I like the fabric.
Yes, that’s true!
This was a GREAT tutorial!!!
Bean bag filling is expensive. Use your kids old teddy bears.
You could add some stabilizer to the pieces to firm it up too. Great video, thanks
Thank you!!
Hi! Love this so much! You are so talented! Do you have any ‘how to sew’ videos? I have a Brother machine but have not tried yet. Thank you!
Thank you your videos are great
Awesome tutorial!
Thank you!
Lovely!!
This so cute and neat!
+Nicole Davis Thanks Nicole! 😊
Oooh, very nice but I’d have to have someone make this for me! 🥺
Hi, I love what you did. I do not have a sewing machine and don't know how to sew so it would be nice to see a video on how to make this without having to sew anything....thanks for sharing!
+Kaliposwife Thank you so much! I appreciate the feedback and will be doing another video that doesn't require sewing 😊
You remind me so much of my favorite aunt ;-)
+DopeRed Lol!! Thank you 😊She must be an amazing woman.
I have been looking for a pattern to make a floor pouf. I guess it would have been easier to find if I knew what they were called. Lol. Thank you for uploading the video.
+Colette Mcwilliams LOL! I'm glad this helped. Thanks for watching 😊
What was the measurement for the original piece of fabric?
+Colette Mcwilliams I purchased 2 yards of fabric.
How wide was it?
+Colette Mcwilliams It's 59"inches wide
Could you pease make the video? I don't saw but I am ready to give it a go. Thanks again, I absolutely love, love your tutorials.👍🏼👏🏼👏🏼😊
+Sylvie Perez I sure will! Thanks Sylvie!
Great video, thanks for sharing!
+Pearl Lucas Thanks Pearl!
Love your Channel
+Angela Walker Aww... Thanks Angela 😊
I would like to make one to hold the filling so when needed the outside can be washed but I don't know how to sew the zip in this case.... I want to be able to take it out and put it back on again when cleaned. Great tutorial, thanks!!
That’s a great idea! 😊
This is amazing!
Thanks!
That's beautiful 😍
Awesome
Thanks!
Niceeeee I wish I could sew.. please do one without sewing...this turned out pretty
+Faye Minter Thanks for the feedback. I'm planning to do more no sew videos.
SO NICE
Thank you!!
This is beautiful!! I wish I knew how to sew! I do a little but not good enough for this project. What model sewing machine is this? I just watched the entryway makeover bench project and it led me here. You are very talented and I love your videos.
Really?, can you be any more talented? That is so nice. I'm a new subbie, sitting here going through your playlists..lol. Love them all!
Thanks girl!! I appreciate you. Many blessings!
One of the best tutorials for making a floor pouf. Great idea of lettering the pieces. So do I have this correct that the zipper is between B & A and the steps are as follows -
1.) B to C then C to D
2.) E to C then C to F
3.) F to B, B to E, E to D, D to F
Thank you and can't wait to get started with a lot of denim that I have on hand.
Thanks Beth! Yes, that's right. You got it! I'm glad the instructions were clear. I wanted to make sure that it was. 💕
Could you look at your video again. The drawing doesn't match up with your actual video. At the 4:14 spot you see the zipper but it's not the same on the drawing. I had other eyes on this & didn't think it was the same. The diagram is in a T or cross shape but at the 4:14 there is no block on top if that makes sense.
I know I am super late to the game but I just love this pillow but unfortunately I have NEVER used a sewing machine! Any way you can send me a video of you sewing this? Thank you so much in advance!
thanks so much!
LOVE love love it!! Where did you buy such a beautiful fabric?
Thank you! I purchased it from IKEA.
Yes mam love this tresha great for the grand babies but can you give the link on showing us how to show...btw you make an excellent instructor...have a great one!!
+audre cane Thanks Andre! Yes kids love this! Actually, I made this for my little cousin who is 16 months. He uses it every single day to watch Cartoons and eat his snacks LOL! I'm not sure if understood your question correctly, could repeat it for me please?
treshaja sorry lol it was supposed to say sew....or can you use the no sew strips
Okay I see! Yes, I'll do a video on that. Honestly I am not sure I want to do another tutorial on this using a no sew method. I just don't feel like it will hold as well. I see my little cousin jumping on it and all I can think about is... what if I didn't sew it and it fell apart. That wouldn't be good. So, I think I will do a sewing tutorial to use for projects like this. Enjoy your holiday weekend!
Trishaja where u get your sewing machine from it looks very easy to angle thanks my dear much blessings to u and family.
Can we fill with clothes instead beans foll
Wonderful tutorial, love the fabric. I wonder how long it will be until you find all the little ‘runaway’ pellets. 🤨
Thanks! Lol! It’s no telling.
You mAde this look so easy😩😩😩 I'm still trying to learn how to sew
+Perfect As I Am 1 I'm definitely going to start working on a video for sewing.
awsome so inspirational .....👌
+Rahila Rana Thank you!! I'm glad you liked it 😊
