Many of you have asked for a video about how to sew a pillow when you don't have a sewing machine. Hope this tutorial is helpful!

Thank you so much for this, it's the only video I've found that explains things wonderfully, and doesn't require a sewing machine (I can't afford one, but really want to make my own things!)

[morganking]

Only video I found that's helpful that's hand sewn!!! I do not have a sewing machine and my grandma used to hand see so I wanted to learn!

Watching in 2021 on a new journey! My grandmother taught me how to sew a pillow when I was young, but I needed the refresher course. This is exactly what I was looking for.

And I have the same warm feeling thinking about my grandmother 😇 as I do listening to this wonderful woman teach like the pro she is.

Wonderful, and just what I needed. Thank you for making everything so clear and easy to follow.

[jackieokeefe]

Thank you for this! I feel confident and prepared to make my first pillow. I've spent hundreds on pillows but now, I'll never buy another!

I am the most useless person in the world when it comes to crafts of any kind, and this video is perfect for hapless crafters like me. I actually found this video the first time back when it was first uploaded 5 years ago, I was looking to make a joke pillow for my mother - a pillow with a case covered in crazy cat faces, lol. This video was so easy to follow that the pillow actually turned out far better than I thought it would given my complete lack of skill. I'm here now because I'm planning another pillow and couldn't remember how to do it, and hoped I could find the same video I'd seen before. Very glad it's still up! This time I remembered to save it :)

Hello Jann! Thank you so much for this tutorial. I have some sewing experience, however, I was no so confident to make pillow cases for myself. With your tutorial, I will definitely will be making some silk/satin pillow cases for my family and I.

[deniseacebo]

Thank you, this video is great! I love to hand sew. I recommended this to my friend who teaches a home skills class in middle school. This is the way my mother taught me but I marked the sea, line with a pencil so I would sew straight.

[ReadysetYo]

Great video, so clearly explained. Thank you.

[amyconway]

This was such an excellent tutorial. I've made 2 pillows now. I'm so excited to make my own and stop buying expensive over-priced pillows from the stores! :-)

[Katie-yymc]

Thank you so much for making this video i know its been 8 years since it came out but this helped me make a pillow from my old baby cloths so i could give it to mom on valentines day i hope she likes it!

[robertrobbob]

OMG!!! I could so do this. You've definitely given me the confidence to make my first pillow case. I'm afraid of a sewing machine. Thank you, Jann.

[dianelehman]

Thank you so much for this tutorial! (and your 'how to hand sew a pillow closed'). You saved me from spending way too much on some cushion covers I was eyeing. I am terrified of sewing machines and couch barely fix a minor tear along a seam before this. Thank you thank you!

[tarareed]

I know this video us been up got a while, I hope you’re able to see this...thank you so much for sharing. Your video helped me turn my dads flannel into a pillow for my daughter. It’s one of the only things I have from left from him. I was very nervous. Your video helped me right along. My final product isn’t perfect lol, but it was made with love and it shows. Thank you for helping me do this for my girl. Her and my dad were best friends. And she’s had a real rough year. I can’t wait to see her receive this. Thank you. Merry Christmas!

[meandmyfriends]

my brother had a grate time following this and it was easy for him thanks for making it

[RacingPepe]

Thank you for this video :) I'm trying to make a pillow for my doll and I don't have a lot of sewing experience.

[AmyLeeAngelLove]

Thank you so much for this video! Very helpful! I had a small pillow with a cartoon puppy 🐶on it that was given to me as a baby and it would never leave my side. I wanted to make several small pillows today and this is the video I needed to get started. Awesome channel, btw! Thanks again! ✨

[missabegaile]

Thankyou!We are doing this for our project and other videos make it complicated but your video helped me to understand!

[priscillamukiibi]
