How to Make a Quilted Throw Pillow: Post 5: Sew the Pillow

How to Make a Quilted Throw Pillow: Post 5: Sew the Pillow

"It’s quick and easy - here are the steps."

The last steps to sew the pillow together.

In the last tutorial of our series "How to make a quilted throw pillow", we have to sew the pillow together.

You will need: 

  • Your quilted pillow
  •  front
  • The back pieces for your pillow
  • Thread
  • An iron
  • A pillow pad

Fold one of the long edges of the back pieces to the wrong side by 1cm (3/8in) and press. Fold again to hide the raw edge, pressing once more. Sew close to the innermost folded edge to create a hem. Repeat for the second back piece.

Place the back pieces on top of the front piece, right sides together and with the raw edges aligned and the hems in the middle. One back piece should be lined up with the top of the front and one should be lined up with the bottom of the front. They will overlap in the centre. Pin or clip together all round the edge.

With a needle and thread, start the stitch from the inside of the pillow. Sew up from through one of the holes and then down through the hole next to it (like sewing on a button). Pass through 4 or 5 times for a secure hold.
