Using the wavy edge of the Fancy Fleece™ ruler, cut 2” wide wavy strips from the 16” piece of main color fleece fabric and contrasting fleece fabric.

Weave strips to create a “checkerboard” pattern pillow front, pinning at all outside edges to hold in place. Weave tightly that there is no space between strips. Baste stitch woven pillow front, 1/4” in edge.

With right sides together, place fleece for pillow back on woven pillow front. Pin to hold in place.
