‘Why I Love You’ Pillows!

DIY Pillow Tutorial

To kick off Valentines day in our house the first day in February I put these pillows on my kids bed.  Then for 14 days my husband and I leave love notes in them about why we love them.  They can’t read them {or have them read to them…if they can’t read} until they are ready for bed.  It really motivates them to get ready for bed… BTW!

Here’s the cool thing…they are super easy to make!  I’m excited to share this Diy Pillow Tutorial! They are made out of hand towels.  You know I am a fan of ‘straight’ sewing lines.  So here is a very picture detailed tutorial of how to take a hand towel and create loving memories!

This would be fun to make for your spouse too!

O ya…I got these towels last year at Target after Valentines for around) $0.50 {LOVE IT!!!}

1.  Choose the towel fabric you want for your pocket.

2.  Cut out a 6×8 rectangle (the size of the fabric really doesn’t matter).

3.  Fold down all sides of the pocket and sew.

4.  Sew the 2 sides and bottom of the pocket fabric material down onto another towel.  Make sure to leave the top open!

5.  Turn inside out and sew the sides together.

6.  Flip right side out

7.  Stuff with fluff!

8.  Sew the top

9.  Get ready to place on the bed with love notes and watch them smile!
