Completing a Decorative Pillow by Hand Sewing Opening

This is Vicki Walker for Expert Village. Our pillow is assembled. We have put the trim, the decorative button on the front, sewn the front to the back, we have stuffed it. It has now been pinned and I'm sewing closed the area where the stuffing was put inside. So this is the last of our steps and I would just close it by hand sewing the edge. I like to keep the stitches as invisible as possible so you can not tell it was sewn by hand in this area. I insert the needle and go down maybe about a half a inch. Let's take out that pin. I pull it through and then go through the other side. Kind of a blind stitch so the hand sewn can not be seen at all and just a couple of more inches and the pillow would be through. That is the last stitch for our decorative pillow. The last step and this is the completed project.
