Zippered Pillows

Thanks to Mandi at Vintage Revivals and her awesome zippered pillow tutorial, I've been on a pillow making roll.  I always shied away from zippers in the past because I thought they were too hard.  Well, something clicked when I saw her tutorial.  She does a great job of explaining it and has lots of pictures.  I'm such a visual learner so that always helps.

Here's my stash so far.
  

Here are the sources for the fabric in case anyone is interested:

Black and white chevron: FabricHQ on Etsy
Charcoal trellis pattern: Napkins from Target
Coral/pink: remnant from local fabric store

If you're scared of zippers I highly recommend her tutorial!  It will make you want to sew pillow covers for every pillow in your house!

  2. I love that trick too but I first learned about it from Jesse (Scout & Nimble) ;) She had a tutorial in April about the fast and easy zipper, but I still need to try it. Love your pillows A LOT!
