Sew and Flip Pillow Design


  • First I cut 20 five inch squares. I measured in 3/4 of an inch from both edges of one corner and made of mark.  I repeated this procedure on the opposite corner except that the marks were 3 inches from the corner.









Then I cut bunches of strips and sewed them from the 3/4 inch mark to the 3 inch mark. The blue fabric was used like a foundation for the flip and sew strips.







  

After sewing strips on all 3 sides of the foundation, I trimmed the edges.











Then I sewed 4 blocks together to make a 10 inch blue star block.
 
After creating 4 of these blocks and adding a border of leftover strips....










a pillow top is created.
