Matisse inspiration

Lightly draw out the shapes on the colorful broadcloth fabric and then cut out

Figure out the placement on your pillow fabric

*I made my pillows 20" x 20"

Carefully squeeze the E-6000 Stitchless glue around the edges of your cutouts

Iron the cutouts in place until the glue disappears

Pin the back of the pillow over the ironed-on cutouts

Using 1/2" seam allowance, stitch around the pillow and leave an 8" opening so that you can turn it right side out

Clip the corners at an angle

*Clipping the corners leaves less bulk in the corners when you turn it right side out

Stuff the pillow and stitch closed

If you want to, create yarn tassels for the corners in different colors and stitch them on.
