Cute LOW-SEW Cross Stitch Pillow Finish - Easy Way to Add Trim and Finish a Decorative Pillow

[@LoriOrr-qp8fg]

I just watched 2 pillow finishing tutorials by you and I thank you. I have 6 projects for my Christmas doughbowl and I'm getting ready for a couple of finishing days. You are so informative and I appreciate this type of flosstubes very much. They are like taking a course without leaving the house, and they are FREE!!

[@lorettahenderson8979]

Thanks so much FQS❤

[@susanspratling]

Very cool thanks, Kimberly

Love this video ❤❤❤

I love the smaller designs in the typeface series. 5x5 or 6x6 are great sizes - as you were talking through that segment I was thinking about school picture packages where you have 1 large, 2 medium, and 4 smalls - I like variety so that would appeal to me (something to frame, something to stand, something to dough bowl, and something to hang on the tree). For the future, I'm over things with the month embedded into them, it's fine if it is in a place I could leave off without altering the design.

Thanks FQS! ❤

[@susanhartley8207]

Love these!

[@marie_h1104]

Love the idea of attaching the pompoms and the stars! I think I have some of that glue somewhere....

[@terryblair966]

Thank you for this lesson it was very good ❤

[@teresakearns6924]

Oh my Goodness 😂 I Absolutely Love the Uncle Sam design. Thanks So Much Kimberly for the video tutorial 😊

[@nikkiwilliams3147]

I love the patterns on the black background. These new pillows are adorable 😍

[@lisanaples1793]

Love this. Just placed another order.

[@pennyschwarze6393]

Thank you.

[@nancypage8061]

Such cute faces!

[@tinageorge8759]

Thank you Kimberly for this wonderful tutorial, so beautiful on all three pillows!!! 💚❤️🤍💙💚

[@christinak23]

These are the cutest pillows! I love the new typeface series! Thank you for a wonderful finishing tutorial

[@peggyyoung1839]

Pellon also makes sf101 in black for your stitches done on black. I also put sf101 on the backing of the pillow to stabilize it.

[@cindyflinchbaugh7155]

I love the Patriotic Type Face pillow. Thank you for another fantastic tutorial.

[@therapistitcher523]

Wow! Your instructions make these so simple. I’ve never made pillows but now feel like I can. Thanks for this!! 💕🪡

[@HeatherKelly]

Wow! Love those pieces, so you know I went over and purchased the downloadable version (your evil plan worked to get me to buy those cute patterns 😂) great tutorial

[@ninagillenwater4502]

Those are adorable!!! Thanks, Kimberly!

[@robertaarrowsmith2860]

Absolutely adorable. I love this method. It is a challenge for me to cut a slit in the back since I always made pillows the old-fashioned way. This will be great on all the patriotic cross-stitch pillows for Red, White andJune. 😍❤️🧵🪡🇺🇸

[@PurplePaperMountain-Christi]

Super cute! I love the idea of putting the Star pattern felt piece on the back to cover the opening. You could also adhere the felt to iron-on interfacing prior to cutting and just iron it on the back of the pillow.

[@LesTeeCards]

Kimberly, you make it look very do-able for someone like me who doesn’t sew. I’m going to give it a go. Thanks!

[@waikikialoha6300]

Beautiful work, Kimberley. You are very talented. The pillow is adorable.

[@crossstitcher2236]

What a great video! Love the new patterns! Thanks Kimberly!

[@michellegamble6732]

Thank you for explaining how to do a pillow. I love this pattern.

[@liligarcia665]

Thank you for this amazing tutorial! It seems so easy and I’m in love with these super cute pillows!! ❤️🤍💙

[@MyCreativeCorner3]

I love small projects!!

[@michelemead841]

Thank you Kimberly this is great ❤

[@pamelawinkel1561]

Love this! They’re adorable!!

[@jerijocreates]

OMGOSH these are the cutest little pillows! I totally went and purchased the patterns and floss!

[@patriciakalisak4300]

Adorable and looks easy enough that I should be able to do this!

[@kayhelland9599]

Thank you so much for this tutorial. I feel better about applying pompoms now. You’re the BEST!!! ❤

[@hafciarskiswiatani]

This looks like a really hard work 😲 However, the result is absolutely wonderful ❤ These pillows are so cute 😍

[@pampeterson3092]

Very cute. Thanks for sharing.

[@angelastoutenger7944]

I don’t remember seeing that Typeface pattern. How cute! Now I need to order it. I would leave an opening on the bottom to stuff and then use a whip stitch to close rather than cutting into the fabric on the back. Very cute finish!

[@robertacreed7895]

Love these❤

[@barbaraanne2136]

Beautiful!

[@patriciaruppert201]

Beautiful.

[@dianacagle2545]

These little pillows are so so cute! Can anyone share what they do with the pillows?

[@chrisbishop318]

I would love to do pillows however I don’t have a sewing machine. But love these. I don’t know if it is something I could do by hand or not.

[@DreamyButtercup]

I think these pillows are adorable and I’m not even American!! You have the cutest patterns!! Question - would it make sense to use heat and bond to attach the stars? You could trace the stars on the heat and bond and then adhere it to the felt. Then you don’t need to worry about getting pen on the felt. Thanks for another wonderful tutorial!!

[@FatQuarterShopFlossTube]

Hello DreamyButtercup! Yes, you could use heat and bond to attach the stars.

[@kckoehler1766]

GREAT video & technique. Did you put interfacing on the checked backing fabric? Thank you.

[@FatQuarterShopFlossTube]

Hello kckoehler1766! No, we did not put interfacing on the backing fabric.

[@julieborkenhagen7844]

Where can I find the pattern? I’m collecting the Typeface series. I don’t see it on FQS website. Thanks!

@@FatQuarterShopFlossTube. The link only works via this video. I have items in cart but the search doesn’t work for me to add to my cart.

I'm scared to cross stitch on dark fabric... Is it difficult?

[@FatQuarterShopFlossTube]

Hello SmittenKitten! It can be difficult at first but as long as you have enough light you can do it. We also recommend putting a white piece of paper on your lap so you can see the holes better.

[@SmittenKitten.]

@@FatQuarterShopFlossTube Thank you for the great tips!

Hello Cforsee675! You may need to clear your cache.

[@lisablondell2349]

I can’t figure out why you’re cutting the back instead of stuffing at the seam.

[@FatQuarterShopFlossTube]

Hello Lisa! You can stuff at the seam if you'd like.
