Peacock Feather Pillow Case

Instructions

1. Apply the fusible to the wrong side of the fabric you want to use for the peacock body. Trace the shape and cut out body piece.

2. Position body on the center of the pillow. Iron in place. Apply batting on the left side of the front fabric.

3. Cut out feathers using the pattern.

4. Set marks where you want to place the feathers, pin them in place and sew a small zig-zag stitch along the edge of each feather. You can now add, by hand or machine, embroidery around the feathers if you want. You can use pailettes, glass beads, pearls or whatever you want to make the crown.

5. Cut down the edges of the front fabric to 52 x 52 cm.

6. Lay the fabric wrong side up on your ironing board. Go to the long edge of panels and fold over 1 cm of the fabric. Press this down with your iron. Now fold again by another 1 cm and press again. Now you'll sew this hem down.
