Dresden Plate Pillow

Fabric Requirements:

Notes:

• Finished Size: 21" Diameter
• All seam allowances are 1/4" unless noted.
• Fat 1/4 = approximately 18" x 21"
• * = Adhere fusible adhesive to back of fabric before die-cutting the shapes.

Piecing the Project:

1. Sew 20 Dresden Plate blades together to form the pillow top. Press seams to one side.
2. Place the 4" Circle in the center of the pillow top. Heat fuse in place with an iron. Stitch around as desired. When ironing in place, use a Teflon pad underneath the project to prevent fusing to ironing board or work surface.

Finishing:

1. Layer the pillow top and pillow back, right sides together. Pin and sew with 1/2" seam allowance, leaving an opening approximately 6" long to insert pillow form.
2. Turn right-side-out, insert the pillow form and whipstitch closed.
3. For added interest, sew a button to center of the Dresden Plate Circle and through the pillow for a finished tufted look.
