This
circle pillow project will help you learn how to sew curves. You will
need the following for learning how to sew a circle pillow:
½ yard material
round 14 in pillow form or stuffing
Heavy paper 15 x 15 inches
To make our circle pattern fold a piece of 15 x 15 inch heavy paper in
half. Then fold in half again. Round the edges to make a circle.
Another option is using a large plate or bowl and tracing around the
bowl on your paper.

Unfold
and use this as your pattern. Cut out two circles from your material
using the circle pattern. Pin your pattern in place or draw around the
circle with a
fabric marker.
Place the two
material circles with right sides together. Stitch together
leaving an
opening for stuffing the pillow. If you are using a pillow form leave a
larger opening for inserting the pillow. Otherwise stuff with batting.
Hand stitch the
opening and practice hiding your stitches.
Later
on we will try some decorative ideas such as adding a trim or ruffle.
