Barbie Throw Pillow Crafts Round Up -14 Free Patterns

Little decorative pillows are a breeze to make and help turn a house into a home. Even a Barbie Dollhouse:@) I've made quite a few for the dolls and thought I'd gather a bunch of simple projects in one place (14 as of this post), and we'll expand upon them as time goes on. Since it's fall, let's start with this 3D Yo-Yo Pumpkin Pillow... 

My fabric yo-yo pumpkin picture tutorial can be found here, it remains one of my most viewed posts to this day. 

I used a 3 1/2" circle of fabric for the Barbie size and added a cotton ball to the center. Then shaped the creases in the fabric to try to loosely represent the ribs in the pumpkin:@)  Felt and a dab of glue helps create the stem.

Little red trucks are still a popular design theme, and now Barbie is right on-trend too... And to add to the fun (and save storage space), you could make each side of the pillow a different print. Maybe Christmas here and Harvest Season above. Both cute prints were fat quarters from Walmart through the years.

✂Small Square Pillow:

1. Cut two pieces big enough to show truck detail, but small enough for 1:6 scale.
2. If you aim for an approximate 2 1/2" square, you'll end up with about a 2" pillow, that's a good Barbie size😊
3. Right sides together, sew 1/4" around the sides leaving an opening to add batting/stuffing/cotton balls.
4. Turn right side out, be sure to poke corners out, fill pillow, sew hole closed. 
5. Sew or glue decorative trim to edges if desired-I desired pom-poms:@)

✂Ribbon Pillow with Black Haired Barbie or Selvage Edge Pillow:

I started with 2 1/2" wide white satin ribbon that had gold glitter and garland wired edges. I cut my ribbon long enough to fold in half and fold the raw edges up about 1/4". Then I hand sewed up each side. I cut the Barbie outline out of fabric and glued her on using Elmer's Craft Bond Spray Adhesive. Stuffed it with some batting and sewed the bottom edge. Glitzy and fun, what diva wouldn't love this:@)
