Small pillows are one of the simplest projects to make for babies and toddlers.

Regular or shaped?

Compared to classic cotton pillow covers in square or rectangular shapes, consider the option of atypical and cheerful shapes: triangle or circle?. Another idea is shaped cushions in the form of moons, stars, and other cheerful geometric shapes, and they are also very easy to make.

And what to do first?

The first thing we need to do is trace the pattern onto the chosen cotton fabric and cut it in half, which will leave us with a completely symmetrical piece. On the machine, we sew and finish the edges so that we can still turn the fabric right side out. Remember that baby products must be safe, with nothing that could pose a risk: such as zippers, beads, and other inappropriate sewn-in details. In the crib, we can only place items and sewn decorations that do not endanger the child!

Everything is so carefully sewn, we can, for example, imagine that a cloud or a moon as a pillow has eyes (this can be done with sewn-in thread or yarn) and then all that's left is to fill the pillow with the chosen cotton filling and we have a fantastic super fun pillow almost ready!

You can make this craft cotton cushion in thousands of ways and achieve a variety of different decoration designs and finishes. How about, for example, funnier eyes, sadder or sleepy eyes? A pillow for a crib or cradle will serve as a colorful attraction for the baby, it can safely chew on it, and also as a safety barrier in places where it would be better for the baby to have a soft support.
