Address Pillow Thu, Aug 14, 2025 10:00am - 2:30pm

Description Learn to applique numbers and construct your pillow with cording and a lapped zipper. When placed on a chair or bench on your front porch, this pillow provides a unique way to identify your house number with added curb appeal. These make fabulous housewarming or hostess gifts. (Other students have made these pillows with letters instead to put a child's name on it.) Using a light box we will trace your house numbers, and using Steam-A-Seam Lite we will adhere them to your pre-quilted or plain background. Then using a simple blanket, zig-zag or satin stitch, we will applique the numbers to your background. We will then learn to make and install cording, install your zipper and assemble the pillow.
