Hi everyone! I'm Jann from Newton Custom Interiors. I LOVE to make pillows, and today I'm excited to share with you how to make a flanged pillow. This is a great pillow! The flange adds some interest to this type of pillow, Buy Derila Online and I love adding cording around the outside edge. You can make a small version of this pillow to put on a sofa or chair, or you can make a larger version for a bed. Before I get started with the tutorial, I want to mention a pet peeve of mine about flanged pillows. I know you've all seen this. The flanged pillow with the floppy corners, which is the big problem with most store-bought flanged shams. I like to beef up my flanged pillows, so that the corners don't droop or flop. Below are some pillows I made for a client's guest bedroom. Notice how the corners stand up nicely. That's what is so great about making your own pillows, you can add in details that will make your pillows really custom.

In this tutorial, I'll give you step-by-step instructions for making your flanged pillows with no floppy corners, and I'll also show you how to add cording around the flanges. Cording adds an extra pop of color. For this pillow, I used a 18″ x 14″ pillow form, and made my flanges at 1 1/2″. You can make your pillow whatever size you want, maybe a bed- size pillow with larger flanges. Just adjust your measurements accordingly. 1. Cut your front piece of fabric 22″ wide x 18″ long. 2. Cut 2 pieces for the back of pillow. The first piece needs to be cut at 22″ wide x 15 3/4″ long, and the second at 22″ wide and 3 3/4″ long. 3. First we're going to work on the back of the pillow. Serge the 2 edges of the back pieces where the zipper will be inserted, or you can zig-zag along the edges to keep the fabric from fraying.

4. Sew the two back pieces, right sides together, using a 3/4″ seam allowance. Use a small stitch for the first 3 1/2″ and the last 3 1/2″, and a long stitch for the middle. This is where the zipper will be sewn in, and the long stitches will be taken out later. 5. Sew the zipper into the seam. I have done a short video showing how to insert a zipper in this type of pillow. I've also written out the instructions below the video. You will have two pieces of fabric, or in the case of the neckroll pillow, one piece of fabric. Serge the two edges that you will be seaming together for the zipper. This will keep the fabric from fraying when the zipper is opened and closed. With right sides together, sew a seam 3/4″ away from the serged edges. The first and last couple of inches of the seam will be sewn with a medium sized stitch, and the middle section will be a long stitch.

Your zipper length should be slightly larger than the zipper opening. For instance, if the zipper opening needs to be 14″, then I would use a zipper that was 15″ or 16″ long. Lay your zipper face side down and centered on the seam. The top and bottom edges of the zipper should overlap slightly, 1/2″ or so, into the medium seam stitching. Using a zipper foot, start sewing to the left of the top of the zipper teeth. Continue sewing down the left side of the zipper teeth. At the bottom of the zipper, turn and Best Pillow for Neck Pain sew across the bottom edge. Turn again and sew up the other side of the zipper. When you reach the top, turn again and sew across the top edge. Take out the long stitches in your seam, so that the zipper can be opened and closed. Remove any loose threads. Here's a photo of the front and back sides after the zipper has been sewn in.
