How to Make a 9 Patch
Country Raggedy Quilt Pillow
This
16" charming country raggedy 9 patch pillow is quick and easy to make. It is
just right for the novice sewer/quilter and will add country charm to any
room in your home. |
 |
You will
need: - nine 5" single squares of
quilt batting
- nine 7" double squares of fabric
|
 |
Place one piece
of quilt batting in between two pieces of a fabric square.
|
 |
Make sure the
fabric batting is in the center and the pretty sides of the fabric
square are on the outside. Pin in place. |
 |
Stitch
diagonally across the square going through all 3 layers. Do this to all
the squares. |
 |
Using other
fabric, cut a backing to your pillow the same size as your 9 patch pillow
front that you just made. Place the
backing and 9 patch pillow front together pretty sides out. Pin
around the outer edge. Leave a 4" opening to stuff your pillow.
Stitch a 1" seam around the outer edge of
your pillow going through all layers including the back.
Don't forget to leave the 4" opening for
stuffing. |
 |
Cut slits on
ALL seams of your pillow. The smaller the slit, the more your 9
patch pillow will "rag".
Wash your pillow in Cold/Cold. Dry
your pillow in the dryer. |
 |
Stuff your
pillow with fiberfill. Machine stitch or hand stitch the opening
closed using a 1" seam. |
 |
Your charming
country raggedy 9 patch pillow is finished! |
