The Jig is Up!
Pattern Description: Puzzle piece Pillow Set. Use scrap fabric to stuff. Get pattern HERE.
Pattern Sizing: N/A
Did it look like the photo/drawing on the pattern envelope once you were done sewing with it? Yes, pretty much except for the error I made on one of the pillows where I didn't align the edges well enough and the pillow is a little twisted.
Were the instructions easy to follow? I was a test sewer for this project and the instructions were very easy to follow. I have several bags of scrap fabric and wanted to get rid of them, so this was the perfect project.
What did you particularly like or dislike about the pattern? I liked most that I was able to use the bags of scrap fabric that I've been holding on to for so long. I didn't want to throw them away and I was tired of them taking up space.
Fabric Used: I used an upholstery tapestry fabric which I found at a local fabric store (is now closed). I found the fabric to match an ottoman I bought for our den and the fabric is an exact match! It was the most expensive fabric I've ever bought at $25/yard and I bought 4 yards. I kept saying I would make matching pillows and never did. I bought the fabric in 2016. It only took me 8 years to use it. LOL. But I'm glad I waited because I love these pillows so much more than the ordinary square pillows I was planning to make. Win win!
Pattern alterations or any design changes you made: none
Would you sew it again? Would you recommend it to others? Yes, maybe in the future when I need some more pillows.
Conclusion: I am very glad I was able to test this lovely project. Now go get the pattern and make your own!
