Sew fabric dice with hearts - cube pillow sewing pattern

The Y2K retro style is having a moment, and what could be more iconic than a set of dice for a kid’s room? I came up with this fabric dice project because I wanted something simple to sew, but still eye-catching. The little heart appliqués are my favorite part, they instantly give each cube a personal touch. A classic, but with a modern twist.
This pattern is perfect if you want a project that feels fun right away and still looks like you put real love into it. You don’t need any appliqué experience to get started, you’ll have everything you need to dive in confidently. And if hearts aren’t your thing, you can easily swap them for any other motif.
For the nicest finish, choose a slightly sturdier, non-stretch fabric. If your fabric is very thin, a layer of interfacing helps so the stuffing won’t show through later.

• Retro vibes with heart: The perfect mix of Y2K style and a personal touch.
• Beginner friendly: A great little win, even if appliqué is new to you.
• Made for the kid’s room: Cute as decor and fun to make.
