Today I am sharing how to make this fun American Flag Pillow ….something fun to add to your pillow line up as you get ready to celebrate the 4th!
It couldn’t be easier to make the pillow!
SUPPLIES
- Expressions vinyl Heat Transfer Vinyl in Tomato Red and Royal Blue
- Electronic Cutting Machine- I used a Cricut Explore
- America design from Cricut Design Space (this one was free)
- weeding tool
- pillow
DIRECTIONS
- Get into Cricut Design space and bring up America design. Search “America” and you will see it in the first two rows.
- Size the font to the size you need for your pillow.
- Place Heat Transfer Vinyl FACE DOWN on your cutting mat. Before cutting make sure to mirror image your design as you want it to cut out in reverse so it irons on the correct way!
- Cut design.
- Using weeding tool, weed out the design. You will end up with it looking like this:
- Place two bottom red words on the pillow and iron on.
- Cut one of the red words and one of the blue words in half and place them next to each other and iron on.
- You are done! Display your pride for all to see.
