Stuffing a Pillow or Making a Pillow Form

I was restuffing a purchased pillow form because it was lumpy and made my pillow look lumpy, so I decided to film the process. Tufting the fibers the way I do it makes for a much smoother look when creating a pillow form or stuffing a pillow without a form. It also helps to make amigurimi and other stuffed figures smoother. Take a look and leave a comment if you like and would like to see more crafty videos.

Thank you for showing us the tufting demo for pillows. This really makes the difference for a smoother look. ❤

I'm excited to try this! I took apart my friend's patio chair cushion to make a pattern for reupholstering. Now to stuff the stuffing in!!!!! Tufting the fibers must be the key, because mine was so lumpy after I just stuffed it in. Thank you!

Thanks for this. My pillows are always so lumpy after I re-stuff them but not any more! Very helpful presentation..

Can the pillow be washed with filling?

[@QuiltedPigPhoebe]

It really depends what what filling you use because some hold up better than others. I would not put poly stuffing in the dryer. If you find that it gets lumpy over time, you could open up the pillow again and pull and re-fluff the stuffing like shown in the video.

I ‘d put the fiber turfts into sew into sew- in interfacing then into pillow cover.
Makes changing out covers for washing easier.
My pillows never look lumpy because I cover foam forms with interfacing. Foam is much more expensive but lasts decades.
