Sew & Decorate Easy Throw Pillow | Beginner Friendly DIY Project

July 25, 2019 by Jennifer Moore Leave a Comment

New to sewing? Then this easy DIY project is for you – we’re sewing a simple and quick throw pillow cover with an envelope style closure at the back.

I decorated the front with iron-on transfers from Michaels Crafts and used pinking shears to finish the seams and help prevent the fabric from fraying.

Total cost to make this pillow cover + purchase the down-filled insert was approximately $12 – so this is a budget and beginner-friendly DIY – perfect for home decor or as a gift.
