Step 2: The Hunt for the Perfect Fabric
With your swoon-worthy color scheme in mind, dive headfirst into your fabric stash. We're looking for Zen Chic's SPOTTED line. Those beautifully calm and solid-looking blenders. Don't have 'em? No problem! Any similar solid-reading fabric that fits your color scheme will do.
Step 3: Slice and Dice
Now, time for some action, darling! Cut those fabrics into thin strips of equal width. Remember, precision is key!
Step 4: Strips, Assemble!
Assemble those fabric strips into blocks and a dance of horizontal and vertical striped rectangles. This alternating pattern will give our pillow that signature Zen Chic modern vibe.
Step 5: Quilting: Engage!
With your layout locked down, start sewing those blocks together. Piece by piece, watch your modern marvel come to life.
Step 6: Pillow Transformation
Here's where the magic happens! Turn your pieced blocks into a long, stylish pillow. You're not just making a pillow; you're making a statement.
Step 7: Finishing Touches
Lastly, add an envelope closure to your pillow for practicality and a binding to the edges for that extra oomph.
And just like that, you've successfully turned fabric scraps into a chic, modern quilted pillow! Not to mention, you've added a dash of minimalist flair to your décor.
Give yourself a pat on the back, darling, you've made Zen Chic fans across the globe very proud, and perhaps a tad bit envious. Now, get ready to flaunt your masterpiece on Instagram and Pinterest. Who knows? You might be the inspiration behind the next stash-busting trend!
Ready to tackle your fabric stash and turn something ordinary into something extraordinary? Of course, you are, darling. That's what being a modern, sophisticated quilter is all about.
Let's get stash-busting, darling!
