Whats your favorite part of this Nautical Boy Crib Bedding?
Only a couple more days until 2016, I can't believe it! No, seriously! I can't believe it. Wasn't it just yesterday that my little baby boy was born....ok really it was 15 months ago, but it should've been just yesterday!
Today, I am here to share with you, during the Christmas break, a fun little pillow sham that works for both Christmas and through all of winter! I always love to keep out a few of my Christmas decorations, and this one is one that is great for the transition!
You can download the gnome pattern pieces HERE
Cutting out the pillow:
1. Cut out 1 piece of fabric measuring 17" wide by the width of fabric.
2. Cut that piece of fabric into 3 pieces. They will measure 17"
square, and then two 12" by 17" pieces. The 12" pieces will be for you
back envelope
3. Cut out all the gnome pattern pieces
Assembling your Ornament Christmas Pillow Sham
1. Follow along with the video to complete your pillow
OR
2. Top stitch all gnomes onto the pillow
5. Finish the edge of the fabric using your favorite method on both of
the 12" pieces for the back of your pillow (I used the sew, then roll
method)
6. Place both of the 12" pieces on the back of the pillow, making sure
to line up the corners of the front of the pillow with the back of the
pillow. Pin in place.
7. Sew around the pillow sham using a 3/8 Seam allowance. Make sure to
backstitch over the places where the envelope opening will be because
you will be putting extra pressure on these points when stuffing the
pillow sham with a pillow.
8. Trim the corners so that when you turn you will have nice and pretty corners
9. Turn right sides out and stuff with pillow and Enjoy!
Just like usual, I complete a project ahead of schedule, but then for some reason life gets in the way, and I don't get it blogged for awhile.
I videoed while sewing the pillow. The Youtube video is below for you to follow along with it. I made the video play at double time because sewing can sometimes be slow and tedious, but you still get the idea. So its a quick video because I know you don't have time to sit and watch sewing videos all day. Otherwise you won't get one of these cute pillows done (if you are like me at all ;)!

As an avid Seamstress that sews for 40+ hours every.single.week...I decided that I might know, just a tad bit, of what someone would want that sews a lot, or sews just a little bit.
