Featured Artist Series :: Kolette Hall :: Holiday Pillow Cover

Happy Monday, friends! Let me introduce this week's featured artist, Kolette Hall.

I used one of her snowflake shapes to create this fun, fuzzy pillow project that I've had on my to do list for a couple of months now. I was just waiting to find the perfect snowflake for the job. It had to be something clean, simple and traditional. This shape was exactly what I had envisioned. {love when that happens!}

After cutting the snowflake out of our white flocked heat transfer material, I used the hook tool to weed out the negative space of the design. 

Then, I placed the shape face down, in the center of the pillow cover, covered it with a cloth and pressed it with a hot iron for about 45 seconds. 

While it was still slightly warm, I removed the plastic backing, covered it with the cloth and went over it with the iron one more time. The heat transfer adhered so nicely to the felt! 

Then, for a little texture I used the sewing machine to add some stitching. The straight lines made stitching a breeze.

I just love how it turned out!
