Patchwork Bolster Pillow

Today, Anna Graham from Noodlehead has shared a beautiful pillow that she made, inspired by an Anthropologie version (above left). This project is a great introduction to patchwork and you’ll add piping to the rounded ends, another great skill for new sewers to learn. She shows two versions of the pillow and suggests that you could also add some hand quilting, like the Anthropologie version. Click here to read the full tutorial.

If you haven’t visited Anna’s blog before, you’ll find all kinds of sewing and tutorials. Thanks, Anna!

Update: Again, after all of the controversy created by this series, I would like to encourage you to use these sewing techniques to make your own version of this pillow. Anna has given you some very clear instructions on how to make a bolster pillow, which is an incredibly versatile sewing project.
