There are probably no people who do not like to receive gifts. And if a gift is made on its own, its value increases many times. I suggest you make a decorative pillow in the shape of a heart, as a recognition of your brightest feelings to your soulmate.

In the version presented to you, fluff was used as a filler, but if you suffer from allergies, you can replace it with a synthetic winterizer. Along the edge, the pillow is edged with tinsel, but you can do without it or replace it with another material.
The execution process is ridiculously simple:
Step 1. On paper, draw a heart, cut it out and apply it on a dense fabric folded in half - it will be a bedcloth. Then sew most of it open, leaving a small area through which you fill it with fluff or synthetic winterizer. The foundation is ready.

Step 2. Using the same paper template, cut out a heart from red material, it is desirable that the color be as bright as possible, since the color of the sparkles will look better.
Step 3. With a simple pencil on the cover, make an inscription, draw hearts. Here you can fantasize how you want, the inscription “love” can be replaced with the name of the recipient of your gift, instead of hearts you can embroider butterflies - in general, the appearance of the pillow is at your discretion.

The photo shows how the embroidery process goes: pink sequins with pink threads, blue sparkles with blue. Each spangle is stitched separately, then a loop is made in the place where the next one will be sewn.
It is not recommended to use fishing line instead of thread, as strong wrinkles cause the cotton to wrinkle. Sparkles, if desired, can be replaced with glass beads or medium-sized beads. But the beads for this work will not work, since you only flash the contour and the picture is not even.

Step 4. Put the finished cover on the pillow - the base, sew on the edges. Since you will sew on the front side, because it is more convenient, you should close the seams with a border. In my case, this is tinsel, which harmonizes perfectly with the rest of the elements.

Tinsel can be replaced with Angora yarn - just stitch it around the edges of the finished pillow using a gypsy needle. Such a pillow can be sewn not only for a loved one, but also for someone from relatives or friends, the main thing is to choose a thematic inscription. Following this step-by-step instruction, you can easily do such a job. Your masterpiece is ready! You can also sew a loop in the middle of the top of the pillow so that it can be hung on the wall.
