HOW TO MAKE A POM POM PILLOW

First, you get your pillow frame.

Then, you tie your yarn on a corner nail.

You then go down and around two nail...making a

checkerboard pattern.

Depending on how you want your pillow to look,

depends when you change the color of yarn.

Next, you cut 81 strips of yarn, 

and begin tying each square.

After they are tied, you hold the bottom three pieces of yarn, and cut the rest.

This is what the pillows look like as they start to be completed.

When the pillow is cut (except for the fringe), you cut the pillow off the frame,

creating the fringe.

SEW UP DAY...

We have several mothers come in to help us for a morning.

They bring portable sewing machines, needles, and thread.

We measure and cut the material, and then have a mother sew it up on the machine.

Then, we cut the corners, creating the point.  We clip around to help it lay flat,

turn it inside out...and stuff.

After, we tack on our tops.

TA DA!!!!
