There’s nothing quite like having a cozy, comfortable pillow to rest your head on. But what if you could make your very own pillow, exactly the way you like it? In this step-by-step guide, we will show you how to sew a cylinder pillow from scratch. Let’s get started!

Gather Your Materials

Before you start sewing, make sure you have all the necessary materials. Here’s what you’ll need:

  • Fabric (enough to cover your pillow)
  • Measuring tape
  • Pins
  • Scissors
  • Thread
  • Sewing machine (optional, but recommended)
  • Pillow stuffing
  • Hand-sewing needle

Measure and Cut

Start by measuring the dimensions for your pillow. Decide how long and wide you want it to be, then add an extra half-inch to each measurement for seam allowance. Use your measuring tape to mark these measurements on your fabric, and carefully cut out the pieces using your scissors.

Sew the Side Seam

Take one of the fabric pieces and fold it in half, with the right sides facing each other. Pin the long edge together to secure it in place. Then, using your sewing machine or a hand-sewing needle, sew along the pinned edge, making sure to backstitch at the beginning and end to reinforce the seam. Remove the pins.

Attach the Circular Ends

Next, take one of the circular fabric pieces and place it at one end of the tube you’ve just sewn. Pin it in place, aligning the edges. Sew around the edge of the circle, attaching it to the tube. Repeat this step with the other circular piece, leaving a small opening for stuffing.

Stuff and Sew Closed

Now comes the fun part – stuffing your pillow! Use the opening you left to carefully fill the pillow with stuffing. Adjust the amount of stuffing to achieve your desired level of firmness. Once you’re satisfied, use a hand-sewing needle to sew the opening closed. Make sure your stitches are tight and secure.

Finishing Touches

Before calling your pillow a masterpiece, carefully examine it for any loose threads or uneven stitches. Trim any excess threads and make necessary adjustments to ensure a polished look.

Voila! Your Homemade Pillow is Ready

Congratulations! You have successfully sewn your very own cylinder pillow. Take a moment to enjoy your creation and bask in the satisfaction of a job well done. Now you can add it to your collection of DIY projects or gift it to someone special. Happy sewing!
