ribbon. A straight stitch or a narrow decorative

stitch can be used. Practice the stitch on a scrap of ribbon before stitching on the pillow.

5.Snap on the piping foot. Create piping using Susan Cleveland’s Piping Hot Binding kit.

6.Now stitch the piping to the front of the pillow referring to the directions on page 19 in Chris Jeffreys’ “More sew-it-yourself Home Décor.”

7.Create a topstitched zipper on the backing fabric.

•Cut a piece of fabric 4” wide x length of zipper + 2”

•Draw a rectangle the size of the zipper opening in the center of the right side of the strip.

•Place the strip, right side up to right side of the backing fabric wherever the zipper will be placed.

•Stitch on the marked line using an Open-toe Appliqué foot.

•Clip inside the rectangle and out to the corners with out cutting your seam. Turn strip to inside and press.

•Place the zipper under the opening and topstitch around.

8.Another method for inserting a zipper can be found on page 25 of “More sew-it-yourself Home Décor,” or, instructions for a flap back pillow can be found on page 30 of “More sew-it-yourself Home Décor.”

9.Leaving the zipper open at least 5 inches, with right sides together, stitch the front and back together all the way around tying off at the beginning and end. This can be done with the piping foot, to help hold your fabrics steady.

10.Trim the corners to reduce bulk. Next, turn the pillow right side out through the open zipper and press.

11.Using the L’orna Decorative Touch Wand, embellish your pillow with crystals, create a fringed tassel and attach it to the zipper.
