Fun Friday ~ No Sew Pillow DIY

Since giving a needle to your child is... dangerous, knowing how creative children can be when it comes to dangerous stuff, you may like no-sew ideas better.

Someone on a Facebook group I'm a part of asked for a pillow from Samatha's bed. It took major self-control to just tell them to 'make their own' because not everyone can sew like I can.

Since I plan to make my own pillows soon, why shouldn't I look up an easy, no-sew pillow craft for you guys?

The video tutorial is for normal, human-sized pillows. But some size adjustments will do to change that. 

The circumference of an American Girl doll's head is 11 inches. Your doll's face width may vary depending on the face mold. Take those two measurements, add .5 inches (just so it won't be too short) and there you go! For both square pillows, the major non-lace part of the pillow has to be done with the video tutorial, then you can fabric glue lace and ribbons if you're replicating Pleasant Company onto it. And voila! Easy. (Should be easily said and done). 

For the BeForever round pillow, you would most likely have to sew unless you cut all the pieces out and fabric glue it. You would need two circles and two squares, with the squares approximately being the size of two of the normal square pillows (so 22 inches each) with a height that's 3/4 of the normal pillow. The circles will be the same height but the width of how fat you want your pillow to be... 

I hope this helps you guys desperately wanting to make no-sew pillows with your kids! I wish you luck, readers.
