DIY | COFFEE SACK PILLOW

Photobucket

Supplies you need (for an 18″ pillow):
– A burlap coffee sack (I found mine at our local antique mall)
– a little over 1/2 yard of designer fabric
-sewing machine, scissors/rotary cutter, coordinating thread
First, cut out your fabric (measurements used for an 18″ pillow).
Out of the burlap sack, cut an 18.5″ square.
Out of your designer fabric, cut 2 18.5 x 12″ rectangles.
Hem your designer fabric on one end of each of the rectangle pieces. 
Photobucket
Place your burlap square right side up & line up the raw edges of one of the rectangle pieces + the burlap. (Right sides should be facing.)
Photobucket
Line up the raw edges on the other side. Your designer fabric will be overlapping.

Photobucket
Sew all the way around your square + flip right side out. 
You’ve got yourself a pillow with an envelope closure!
