Hippity Hop Easter's on its way.....

 
I thought I would show you quick and simple pillow idea my mother made many years ago for my daughter.
 
 
All she did was embroider on a plain white napkin, stitched around three sides and added snaps to the top to be able to remove and wash.
 
 
Since all four sides are already hemmed all you need to do is fold the top of the napkin down once making a wide hem for the snaps.
 Add the snaps and your done!
 

If your not sure how to add the snaps, check out my post here on the Snap Setter.
 
 
How easy is that?
 
You can find napkins in all colors and sizes so there is no need for any embroidery work.
Without the embroidery, it only takes about 20 minutes to make.
 
This napkin was 19 inch square and fit into a 16 inch pillow form perfectly when completed.
My napkin started out as a 20 inch square, but after washing and drying, it measured 19 inches, so be careful and measure your napkin before purchasing your pillow insert.
 
Ain't he cute?
