Heart Pillow with Arms Sewing Pattern - 100 x 35 cm

As a child, the heart pillows with arms seemed to be in every kid’s room, and they even lasted a surprisingly long time in our home. When I recently rediscovered this pillow, memories immediately flooded back—and I thought, why not sew my own high-quality version? That’s how the idea for this heart pillow with arms came about. Its simple shape evokes emotions right away. My daughter was instantly thrilled when she received it. Although the pillow has no face, to her, it feels "alive" and was quickly loved.
This pillow is a wonderful project for beginners since it has a simple shape, but details like the fingers offer a bit of a challenge while sewing. It’s absolutely worth the effort, and for those who want to add more personality, you could embroider a face or add small eyes. An embroidered name also makes it a perfect gift for a newborn.
For fabric, I recommend soft, skin-friendly materials like fleece, teddy, faux fur, or poplin. For fabrics that fray, interfacing helps to keep the edges neat, especially on the arms and fingers.
