How to Turn & Iron a Pillow

Hi, I'm Karina Fraley for Expert Village and we are making our pillow. So we've gone ahead and we've sewn 3 and almost 3 quarters of the way around and now I'm just going to cut any loose threads. Just clean your fabric up a little bit, clean your edges up a little bit, like that and then find the spot that you left open. Remember you were suppose to leave a little part open and now we're going to turn it right side out so that we can see the colors and all their glory. Go ahead and push it out and pull it. Just however big of the space that you need to actually get your hand in there, if you have bigger hands. My hands are pretty small so I left a small little opening. But make your opening as big as you need to and then go ahead and turn it right side out and use your fingers, if you have to use a closed pin, don't use an open pin to sort of just push up the little corner so that it's nice and even. Then we're going to turn it like that. Go ahead and give it a once over with the iron to get out any wrinkles and then we're going to stuff it. So go ahead and get your stuffing and I'll see you at the next clip.
