The Mom Shelf Pillow project features patchwork piecing plus reverse appliqué technique. Don't worry if you are new to reverse appliqué - it is very easy.  Let's gather up the supplies needed!

Thread

• Cotton + Steel 50wt Cotton Thread by Sulky - bright white.  Pillow construction and machine reverse appliqué.
• OPTIONAL Sulky 12 wt Cotton Thread. Perfect for hand appliqué option.

Organ Needles

• Organ Topstitch 80/12 needle. I used this needle as I machine stitched with 50wt thread to construct my pillow.
• Organ Universal Needles - assorted sizes. This is a great pack if you want to use either 50wt or 12 wt Sulky thread in your machine.

Fabric

• 6"x9"felt rectangle -  Sulky FeltyTM
• 4"x 8 1/2"floral quilting cotton fabric - I used a Bonnie & Camille Print
• (8) 2 1/2"fabric squares -  I used Bonnie & Camille Prints
• 8"x 8 1/2"backing fabric - I used a Bonnie & Camille Print
• 9"length of trim
• 2 buttons
• Polyester fiberfill stuffing

Tools

• Sulky KK2000 Temporary Adhesive
• Wonderclips or Quilting Pins

Free Pattern

• Mom Shelf Pillow PDF Pattern

The Mom Shelf Pillow Pattern includes the letters for M O M . I thought his sweet little pillow would be the perfect gift for your Mom this Mother's Day! Plus you could include a few of your favorite Sulky supplies ( thread, needles, Sulky KK 2000 spray, stabilizer, or a kit) with your Mom Shelf Pillow. 

Of course - you could choose a different word or even a shape! Just choose large block letters or shape as it will be easier to cut out! Just remember the word can't be too long as it needs to fit on the top rectangle shape. Word ideas: Dad, Love, Fun, Hi, Yay, Sew !

I can't wait to see your Mom Shelf Pillows and variations!
