Ever since I made a menagerie of wacky throw pillows, we’ve been fighting feathers fighting free of their pillow inserts. UGH! Pokey and messy. So I ordered up fabric meant to keep feathers and down inside their pillows and made covers for all the pillow inserts that were in use over the holidays and now.
I committed to using zippers from stash, so 3 of the 5 do not match the white fabric. I don’t think that will ever be an issue, so let’s hope I’m right! There are a few more feather inserts in storage for upcoming projects and there was a multi-yard minimum so I should have enough fabric to make the rest as needed.
The things you learn on here. I never would have thought about feathers sticking out or special fabric to keep them in. Good thing they make it because your covers are so fun!
This is funny! Feather proof covers, because of course! It’s funny because, really, cushoin liners are a boring project, right? But I’m so interested! I’m off to look for that fabric now… you did a great job with these, & stash busting. Very cool.
And like, WHY don’t they come made in this material in the first place? At least several of these were not, like, super discount/made in china inserts in the first place. Some of these were purchased before the prevalence of that kind of thing and pre buy-anything-online.
I think it would work with sleeping pillows, but maybe not as the case that touches the face. The pillows are pliable and squishy, but not necessarily soft on the hand.
