  Step 1

  Using fabric marking pencil, trace around 12x12 piece of paper. Move paper over and repeat.

• 

  Step 2

  Cut around traced lines with scissors.

• 

  Step 3

  Lay diecut on top of fabric.

• 

  Step 4

  Using Fabric Spray Paints, spritz and spray over top of diecut as desired. The more you spray, the darker the areas will become. Pressing pump halfway will produce a splatter effect. A full pump produces a spray mist. Remove diecut and spray even more color in areas you desire (shown).

• 

  Step 5

  Your finished design will look something like this. Spray on fabric as desired. For best results, let fabric sit for 72 hours before you wash it. I personally didn't do this (I washed mine after 4 hours) and the colors still came out vibrant.

• 

  Step 6

  Iron both pieces of fabric Next, flip the two pieces inside out and pin together around edges.

• 

  Step 7

  Sew around edge of pillow. I used a zigzag stitch, but it may have been better to do a straight stitch.

• 

  Step 8

  Leave an opening of about 2 inches. Now turn the pillow right side out.

• 

  Step 9

  Stuff the pillow using fiber fill and shape as you go.

• 

  Step 10

  Using needle and thread sew up opening and you are finished!

• 

  Step 11

  Here's the other side of the pillow. It has a more concentrated spray look. Also I laid the diecut down again and sprayed and it created a slightly offset registration look (think when you read the comics and the printed colors don't quite line up). I like both sides for different reasons. That's the fun of the sprays...they are definitely fun to play and experiment with!!
