Description 


Instructions 
  1. 1
    Step 1

    You can create your own design for this or you can use my templates by printing them out.


  2. 2
    Step 2

    Cut out two rectangles of fabric.


  3. 3
    Step 3

    Cut out your felt shapes and arrange how you'd like them.


  4. 4
    Step 4

    Either stitch or glue down. I went for the lazy option.


  5. 5
    Step 5

    Embellish with beads, buttons, sequins or anything you like.


  6. 6
    Step 6

    Cut two strips of rick rack ribbon that match the width of your rectangles.


  7. 7
    Step 7

    Place the ribbon at the top and bottom of one of the rectangles and then place the other rectangle, wrong side facing out on top. Pin in place.


  8. 8
    Step 8

    Sew in place down either side, removing the pins as you go.


  9. 9

    Sew down one of the open edges but leave the other unstitched.


  10. 10
    Step 10

    Turn inside out.


  11. 11

    Gather together your hops and lavender. You can buy these in herb stores but I bought mine online.


  12. 12
    Step 12

    Stuff your pillow with the hops and lavender.


  13. 13
    Step 13
