Last week I had the amazing opportunity to share this tutorial over at Someday Crafts! I am excited to put it up on my own site now!
Knockoff Delancey Felt Petal Pillow from Horchow
Horchow sells this pillow for $145.00! I thought it was beautiful but not affordable so I decided to make a knockoff and share the tutorial with you!
A free printable pattern for the flower pieces can be downloaded here.
To make the petals, I cut 1 inch wide strips of felt, cut the long strip into pieces slightly bigger than the petal pattern piece and then cut out the petals. I did not count how many pieces I needed but it is a big stack! You can cut more as you go!
Lay the petals around the circle and sew them on. Make 4 layers of petals this way.
Sew a few stitches by hand to give the top petals shape and attach them to the center of the flower by hand stitching it.
Now, for the pillow, cut 1-14×14 inch square and 2-9×14 inch rectangles of the felt. I also cut 1-14×14 inch square and 2-9×14 inch rectangles of lace to add some texture to the pillow.
Stack a 9×14 inch felt piece and a lace piece and hem one of the 14 inch sides. Then, do the same with the other 9×14 inch pieces.
Now layer felt, lace, lace, felt and overlap the 2 back pieces as shown in the picture above and pin it in place. Then, sew around the outside of the fabric pieces and turn the pillow cover right-side-out.
1. Hot glue flower bases on pillow, close to each other so petals can overlap.
2. There are 4 open spaces in the center of the pillow between the flowers.
3. Cut out more of the top petals and sew 2 of the together.
4. Hot glue the top petal pairs into the 4 spaces.
Stuff pillow with your choice of filling or a pillow form.
Thanks for stopping by!!

How long did it take you to make that?? It’s amazing! No one would ever know it’s a knock-off and not the real deal. You did an incredible job!
This is fabulous! Your pillow looks incredible and your tutorial is very good:)
Adorable!!

I am soo impressed with this project. I wish I could look at something and replicate it like this. What a talent! Great job! Thanks for sharing the tutorial with us.
I think I commented before on this…and if not I definitely meant to, because I love this pillow! And such a great tutorial too!
This is amazing – not only is it as good (if not better) than the original – one could actually lay their head on it! Some of these pillows out in Blogland have so many embellishments, I can’t imagine using it for its original intention. There is no pillow in my home that can’t be used for laying your head upon!
Over the top! I would not have the patience nor the skill to create such a lovely pillow.
