Weighted Flaxseed Eye Pillow with Case

"The Weighted Flaxseed Eye Pillow with Case is a quick-to-sew project that can be gifted to a hard-working friend, mom, or sister, along with some essential oils or spa goodies. This is the sixth of 25 free sewing projects by 12 bloggers in the Little Gifts Sew Along.

Finished Size: Eye Pillow: 7.5” (19 cm) x 3.5” (9 cm). Case: 8” (20.5 cm) x 4” (10 cm) when folded closed. Tools Sewing machine. Fabric shears, ruler, and fabric marker or pen. Basic sewing supplies (seam ripper, pins, etc.). Iron and ironing board. Funnel (optional).

Materials: 100% cotton fabric. -- You can make a pillow and a case from one fat quarter, or mix and match. You will need one 8.5” x 8” (21.5 cm x 20.5 cm) piece of fabric for each Eye Pillow and one 20” x 5” (51 cm x 13 cm) piece of fabric for each Case. Cotton thread. Whole flaxseeds (not ground!). I used about half of a 16 oz (454 g) bag for one Eye Pillow."
