Catnip Pillow

Want to learn how to make a simple pillow that your cats will love? Seriously this is so easy! My cat Luna went nuts when I gave it to her!
 
What you will need:

- Polyfill
- 2 pieces of 12x12 material (any pattern of your choice)
- sewing machine
- pinning needles
- catnip

Step 1:

Cut out 2 pieces of 12 x 12 fabric, and iron the pieces.

Step 2:

Pin the 2 fabrics along the outer edges with the inside facing outwards


Step 3:

Sew 3 of the outside edges together, and 1/2 of the last edge leaving 6 inches of open fabric (this is where we will need to fit the polyfil inside)

Step 4:

Turn the pillow inside out (so now the proper side of the fabric is showing)

Step5:

Stuff the pillow with the polyfill, and while doing that sprinkle the catnip inside all throughout the pillow.
Step 6:

Hand stitch the opening of the pillow together with tiny whip stitches.

And there you have the finished product! A beautifully sewn canip pillow that your animal will enjoy!
