DIY # 4 Pillow Covers

DIY # 4

Okay as I mentioned the story of how I came up with this Project... go to DIY # 4 

I had some old nurse pants that was handed down to me from a family friend and of course I don't need them but since I do (try) to do some craft and sewing projects I decided to keep most of them as my fabrics. 

I decided to use the light lime green, light blue, and dark blue pants to make the pillow covers.... I only did one and I am exhausted!! Haha!

So here is what I did:

I cut 2 squares and sew 2 sides individually so I can use it as the opening part of the pillow cover and sew both squares together on the other 3 sides. I also added 3 ties to the opening part so I can tie the cover together. 

Then I added 3 felt flowers and added a bead to the middle of each flowers so they can be "real" flowers. 

Here's the result!

One of the pillows from Ikea

The finished piece laid flat.

(I decided to have the ties on the side because I think it is kind of a fashion statement for the pillow instead of having them on the bottom.)

The cover on the pillow!

What do you think?!?

I LOVE it!!

Now I need to make 3 more!! I promise I will post a picture of them all!!
