Using a pillow sham is a great way to jazz up a tired old pillow and make it really stand out as a decorative piece in your room. With some very basic sewing knowledge and a great fabric, you can give your pillow new life and style. # Step 1 # Measure the pillow you would like to cover. # Step 2 Choose your desired fabric, along with any decorative trim or pieces you would like to use. # Step 3 Fold the fabric in half, print side in. # Step 4 Cut your fabric to size, leaving about 1-½ inch extra in all directions for the hem. # Step 5 Use a sewing machine to sew a simple stitch from the fold of the fabric out along the two longest sides. # Step 6 Cut off any excess along the edges. # Step 7 Fold over your fabric along the bottom of your pillow sham to create the hem. # Step 8 Sew along the hem, leaving your pillow sham open so you can slide a pillow into it. # Step 9 Add any desired decorative pieces to your pillow using your sewing machine, or even fabric glue. # Step 10 Turn your pillow sham right-side-out and slide your pillow inside. # == #* Fabric #* Sewing machine #* Needle and thread
