Kiss Me Pillow

Nothing spells romance like a pair of red lips! Give a huggable kiss to your sweetheart with this Kiss Me Pillow or use it as cute Valentine’s Day throw. Aleene’s® Fabric Fusion™ makes this lovely project a cinch; use it to adhere the fabric pieces together.

Materials:

• Aleene's® Fabric Fusion™ Permanent Dry Cleanable Fabric Adhesive™
• Tulip® Cordless Heat Setting Tool™
• Tulip® Glam-It-Up!™ Iron-On Crystals™
  • 300 Clear Pack
• Polyfil
• Chalk
• Tweezers
• Scissors
• Sewing needle
• ½ yard of red fabric
• Thread - red

Instructions:

1. Fold red fabric in half and freehand draw lips onto fabric in desired size.
    
2. Keeping the fabric folded, cut out lips pattern, making sure to cut through both layers of fabric. Trim edges if needed.
    
3. Apply Aleene’s® Fabric Fusion™ along border of one of the lip-shaped pieces of fabric. Leave a small section without glue. This will be the opening for stuffing with polyfil. Press the other lip-shaped piece of fabric on top of the piece with Fabric Fusion™, firmly pressing into glue. Let dry.
    
4. Once dry, pull fabric inside-out through opening and stuff fabric with desired amount of Polyfil.
    
5. Use needle and red thread to hand stitch the opening.
    
6. Use chalk to draw a line through middle of lips. (See picture for position.) With needle and red thread, stitch across chalk line, making sure to stitch through both layers of fabric.
    
7. Using chalk, write the words “KISS ME” in your desired font/script. Place Crystals over letters using tweezers.
    
8. Following Heat-Setting Tool instructions, place tip of tool on top of a Crystal and hold for 5 to 6 seconds. Repeat for all Crystals.
