Do you ever see something in a store, and think it’s absolutely beautiful? A while back I was in Pier 1, and saw a beautiful ruffle pillow (that isn’t online anymore). On clearance it was still over $20 though, and I wasn’t about to go for it. I was looking at it, and knew that it would be simple–although a little time consuming–to make one of my own.

So, I came home and pulled some fabric out of my stash, and started ruffling. And ruffling, and ruffling. There was a lot of ruffling. I decided to make a sham for this pillow. Since my pillow wasn’t a square like the one I based it off of, I had to figure out how I wanted the ruffles to lay.

I cut out a rectangle for the front, and two pieces for the back to make an envelope style sham, then I pinned ruffles on the front piece several times before deciding on spirals instead of the waves from the inspiration pillow. I just liked the offset spirals on the rectangle.

After pinning, I started sewing them down–little by little. It took a while to follow the spiral around and around. Most of the pillow front is covered in a single (long) ruffle, but I did have to go back in and fill spots with smaller ruffle pieces. Pinning, placing, and sewing all those individual pieces took a while as well. But I really liked how it looked.

When the front was complete, I sewed the front to the back pieces (like I did in this tutorial), and stuffed my pillow inside.

I put it on the couch that night, and the next morning, Saige noticed it. She immediately wanted to lay on it. Later, I noticed that my ruffle pillow was gone, but her little pillow was on the couch in its place. She had taken it to her bed, claiming it as her own.
