First up is this Heart Pillow! You know how much I LOVE color, and a lot of my projects are so very bright! This one however, is very neutral and I am in LOVE! I love the softness and simplicity of this monochromatic pillow. It so cute, but very understated and lovely at the same time. I used some linen for the background, and thought it just worked perfectly with all those brown prints.
Supplies:
- 1 Cappuccino bundle
- 1/2 yard linen
- 1 yard of fusible web
- Coordinating thread
- Scrap Batting
- Template - Print HERE
Cutting:
- 1 -16.5" x 16.5" square of linen (for front piece)
- 2 -12" x 16.5" squares for backing
- Print out template and cut out heart template.
- 16 hearts backed with fusible web (out of various brown prints) I did two of each print.
Directions:
- Place hearts in a 4x4 grid - leave 1 1/2" on each edge.
- Place a piece of batting on the back of your pillow front and pin into place
- Stitch the hearts into place - I did a simple straight stitch. You could do a blanket stitch or zig-zag as well.
- Follow directions HERE to make into a pillow.
That's it! :) Super easy and cute! Now let's get to my next project!

I'm a bright girl too, but I stretched myself recently and made a quilt using only neutrals. The result I think is fantastic, and the quilt is done! Love the pillow...and I think the choice of linen is inspired. Thanks for hosting!
I never would of thought to use browns for hearts! Love it!!
Love the brown cushion cover with the hearts. Very nice concept and really simple to make as well!
Not sure if you're aware but the link for directions on how to make the pillow is broken unfortunately.
