Made this cute heart-shaped cushion from comfortable old clothes not only saves money for the family, but also allows you to DIY it according to the shape and size you want. Friends, if you like to renovate old clothes and dig out the old clothes you want to get rid of, follow the diagram below to give it a try step by step!~
Materials and tools: scissors, needle and thread, eraser pen, stuffing, old sweatpants.
1. If using sweatpants, you need to cut the legs along the seams.
2. Cut both trouser legs and stack them.
3. Draw a big heart shape with a water-soluble pen. I drew it freehand, but if you're not sure about the shape, you can make a simple template out of newspaper.
4. Then use thumbtacks to secure around the edge of the shape so that the head of the thumbtack is on the drawing line.
5. Cut along the edge of the heart, leaving a 1.5 cm seam.
6. Follow your drawn lines as a guide and sew with your sewing machine.
7. Leave a 10-15 cm gap at the end.
8. Cut small slits in the curved areas for a smooth look.
9. Turn it inside out.
10. Put in filling cotton.
11. Sew the opening.
12. A simple and beautiful love mat is ready~
