Ingredients
- Cotton fabric in various colors
- Polyester stuffing
- Scissors
- Sewing machine or needle and thread
- Fabric markers or pens
- Paper and pencil for template

Instructions
- Draw your favorite fruit slices on paper and cut out the shapes for your fabric pattern.
- Lay your fabric flat, pin the paper template on top, and cut around it, adding half an inch for seam allowance.
- Place two fabric pieces together with the right sides facing each other and pin the edges securely.
- Stitch around the edges, leaving a small opening to turn the pillow right side out; backstitch to secure seams.
- Pull the fabric through the opening to turn the pillow right side out, pushing out the corners for a sharp finish.
- Fill the pillow with polyester stuffing evenly until your desired thickness is achieved.
- Fold in the raw edges of the opening and pin it shut; sew it closed using a straight stitch or slip stitch.
- Add details with fabric markers or embroidery thread; iron if necessary for a polished look.
Notes
Consider using flannel for a softer finish or canvas for a sturdier look. Personalize with names or quotes for a unique touch.
