Bright Felt Circles Pillows

Fashion one purchased blanket into two dotty wool pillows and a matching throw for a playful accent to your home decor.
Applique the Pillow Tops
  1. Referring to the photograph, evenly space six assorted wool C circles in two vertical rows on a blue wool 21-inch square, starting and ending the circles 3 inches from the top and bottom edges. The circle edges should be 5 inches from the wool square's side edges.
  2. Lay out four assorted wool B circles and five assorted wool A circles atop the C circles. When you are pleased with the arrangement, pin the circles together.
  3. Applique each stack of circles together, then to the blue wool square to make the square pillow top.
  4. Referring to the photograph, evenly space two assorted wool C circles on the green plaid wool 5-1/2x12-inch rectangle.
  5. Lay out two assorted wool B circles and one assorted wool A circle atop the C circles. When you are pleased with the arrangement, pin the circles together.
  6. Applique each stack of circles together, then to the green plaid wool rectangle. Place the green plaid wool rectangle on the blue wool rectangle, 4-1/2 inches from one short end. Be sure to allow for a 1/2-inch seam allowance along each long edge of the blue wool rectangle. Blanket-stitch in place to make the rectangular pillow top.
Complete the Pillows
  1. Layer the square pillow top right side down with the remaining blue wool square. Sew around all edges with a 1/2-inch seam allowance, leaving an opening along one side. Turn right side out through the opening and insert the 20-inch-square pillow form. Slipstitch the opening closed to complete the square pillow.
  2. Repeat Step 1 with the rectangular pillow top, remaining blue wool rectangle, and 16x12-inch pillow form to complete the rectangular pillow.
