Button Pillow.

I made this throw pillow for the couch.  A couple of years ago I made a fabric wall hanging out of this Ikea tree fabric.  I only had enough fabric to make the fronts of two 14″ pillows, so I used the corduroy that I used for my ottoman slipcover for the back.  I tried to think of a creative way to avoid having to put a zipper in, and came up with using buttons. I’m really happy with how it turned out, I was going for a “woodland” feel and I think I got it!  I guess it’s probably not hard considering there are trees on the fabric.  I have a matching pillow cut out and ready to sew that I need to finish, and am also working on a tutorial for a button pillow, which I will post next week.

  1. Abby, this is totally cute!! Looking forward to the tutorial. I think it would be really cute in little boys blue jean material with Levi’s buttons:)

  2. I remember that wall hanging! I have no clue how you get so much done. You amaze me. I like the idea of the buttons instead of the zipper, too. It came together very well!

  3. Love that fabric! I really need to head over to my Ikea to check out the fabric selection. Your pillow turned out great, especially like the offset buttons. :)
