Quick and fun sew! It’s a little tricky to get around some of the corners, but I love a pattern that teaches me new techniques!

These are so cute and fun! I loved making them. It is a great challenge around those corners. But I love it!

I made the large C alphabet pillow to place on the glider in my son’s nursery, and it is the perfect addition! I used flannel for mine, and my little guy loves how snuggly it is. The large C came together nicely with some extra attention paid to lining up the front and back panels. Love it!
Aune Wood –
A fun sew to personalize for your home or a child. The small let’s you use up some left over scraps, too!
Amanda Schildmeier –

I loved how quick an easy this pattern was! I think it took me more time to assemble the pattern and cut out the fabric than the sewing itself. With how simple it is, it is 100% worth it to take your time around the corners and get crisp corners. Clip and cut!! I plan on making two Ns for my boyfriend’s sons. I made an L in lavender fleece for his daughter. I don’t know if the fleece warped it but I had to cut 4.5″ off the border piece to make it fit the edges of the face.

I enjoyed making this pattern. The curve of the letter was good practice and challenging for me.
Carrie Rudy –
The alphabet pillow is a cute pattern that would make a great gift for a child’s birthday or a fun thing to make to decorate for holidays!
Jenny Gomez –
I believe that the gusset makes this pattern intermediate. Doing all the corners was quite challenging, but it turned out adorable and I stretched my sewing skills!
Geraldine –
Relatively easy in putting together, just angling of the corners might be a little tricky. Doing more letters for my younger 2:)
Lisa Corriveau –
These pillows were so quick & easy to make. I used a short textured fun fur & it worked out quite well.

Really quick and easy sew!!
Nadia Cadby –
What fun! The corners are fiddly but so worth persevering – I love how it turned out. My large L cushion is for my future great-niece.
Liz Faber –
Such a cute sew to personalise the kids rooms. Top tip: take it slow and steady on the corners!
Tania Watson –
This is not an easy sew. At first glance you would think this would be quite quick to sew but you need to be very accurate in your sewing as there are a lot of curves to sew and tight spots to turn and hand sew. However the end result makes a lovely item.
Mariza Seymour –
Easy to sew although on some letters and numbers the corners can be a bit tricky to “square”. Nice project to use scraps to make keepsake pillows. My girls love their pillows.
