Nothing says “St. Patrick’s Day” quite like the combination of green and gold fabric! Here’s a quick and easy throw pillow you can make to celebrate just how lucky you are!
Gather your supplies. I love using Gold Oly-Fun for this project because it’s so easy to work with. The nice metallic sheen looks great with the softness of the Cuddle Suede from Shannon Fabrics!
Cut two rectangles from the Cuddle Suede material measuring 13″ x 17″ and 13″ x 22.” Fold the longer piece in half and cut through the middle.
Use the free “Lucky” template to cut the word out of Oly-Fun with either a cutting machine or a sharp pair of scissors.
Secure Oly-Fun to the front of your largest panel with pins and begin to sew around the edges. Depending on your skill level, this might take some patience!
Continue sewing around the “Lucky” edges until entire word is securely sewed to front panel. Hem the ends of the smaller panels by turning 1/4″ under twice and sewing along the edge.
Place the two smaller flaps overlapping on the largest panel (right sides facing). Pin around the edge and sew 1/2″ seam around entire pillow cover. Trim the corners and turn right side out.
Place pillow into cover, position on a couch or chair, and enjoy your St. Patrick’s Day!
