Are you tired of looking at your old, worn-out rectangular pillows? Upholstering them is a great way to give them new life and add a fresh look to your home decor. In this blog post, we will guide you through the steps on how to upholster a rectangular pillow. So, let’s get started!

What You Will Need

Before you begin, make sure you have the following items:

  • Fabric of your choice
  • Scissors
  • Measuring tape
  • Pins
  • Sewing machine or needle and thread
  • Pillow stuffing
  • Iron

Step 1: Measure and Cut the Fabric

Start by measuring your rectangular pillow. Take the measurements of the length, width, and height of the pillow.

Using these measurements, cut a piece of fabric that is double the width of the pillow and long enough to cover the pillow completely, leaving a little extra for seam allowances.

Step 2: Iron the Fabric

Iron the fabric to remove any wrinkles or creases. This will ensure a neat and professional-looking finish for your upholstered pillow.

Step 3: Pin and Sew the Fabric

Place the fabric right side down on a flat surface. Align the edges of the fabric with the edges of the pillow.

Pin the fabric in place, making sure to secure all sides. Then, sew along the edges using a sewing machine or hand stitching. Leave a small opening to insert the pillow stuffing.

Step 4: Insert the Pillow Stuffing

Through the opening you left, carefully insert the pillow stuffing into the fabric cover. Distribute it evenly to ensure a uniform shape.

Once you’re satisfied with the fullness of the pillow, hand stitch the opening closed using a needle and thread.

Step 5: Finishing Touches

Give your upholstered rectangular pillow a final touch by fluffing it up and adjusting the stuffing if needed.

Your freshly upholstered pillow is now ready to be displayed and enjoyed!

Upholstering a rectangular pillow is a simple and rewarding DIY project that can instantly transform the look of your home. With just a few materials and some basic sewing skills, you can give your pillows a fresh new appearance. So, go ahead and get creative with your fabric choices and start upholstering!
