Breast Cancer Pillows

June 25, 2019 By A Spoonful of Sugar - 1 Comment

Breast Cancer Peanut Pillow pdf Pattern by A Spoonful of Sugar www.etsy.com/au/shop/aspoonfullofsugar

Peanut Pillows  softly stuffed with fibrefill, are perfect for positioning your arm following breast surgery. They are sized well to use in bed or when sitting on the sofa. If you want to make a thoughtful gift for someone going through breast cancer, sew a breast cancer Peanut Pillow. As pink is the colour for breast cancer awareness, I used pretty pink floral fabrics from the new Plum Garden range by Tilda in this breast cancer peanut pillow.

Pink Ribbon is an initiative by the Cancer Council to provide vital support, research, and prevention to those impacted by Breast Cancer. With one in 7 women being diagnosed with breast cancer during their lifetime, it is important to have regular screening.

I made matching pink ribbon gift tags using my Cricut Expression Die Cutting machine and some coordinating fabric “scraps” from the Plum Garden range.

Peanut Pillow PDF Sewing Pattern is available in our Etsy store. It includes the pattern template, step by step photos, and is a beginner friendly sewing pattern. Peanut Pillows are also good for travellers or anyone with a neck condition who needs neck support when sitting.

Thanks to Two Green Zebras for supplying the Plum Garden Fabric used in this breast cancer Peanut Pillow. Check out our Bath Time Buddies to see another project made using this gorgeous fabric.

In today's reel, I'm making my free Threaded Tokens pattern and showing the cutting and sewing process.

For this version, I used the new SOHMO decorative scissors to create modern scalloped and zigzag edges. They add such a lovely finish and instantly elevate the look of these quick little makes.

I can't decide which edge is my favourite!
