Tutorial: Pom pom pillow covers

Deby from So Sew Easy shows how you can whip up some fun pom pom pillow covers. It’s easy to include pom pom trim when sewing together your pieces. The pom pom trim adds texture and a bit of whimsy to a simple pillow cover. With the little bobbles framing the pillow cover there’s no need for any other embellishment. If you do want to add a little bit extra, you could do like she did with a strip of ruched fabric across the front. Tufting would also be a nice accent on a pom pom pillow.
