Preparation for the work process

1. Before starting to create a preliminary outline of the entire canvas on paper, including the pattern drawing.
   

   We draw the scheme of the future blanket and designate which square of fabric, in which place should be located

2. It is worth paying attention to the fact that the fabric used for the base can have any color, since it will be hidden by our pillows.
3. Determine the size of the blanket in advance. The size of the pads for an adult product 11 * 11 cm, for children - 6 * 6. Calculate how many pads you need.

Work process

1. In order to make a blanket in the technique of "pillows", take the fabric for the base, make a drawing, leaving 5 cm for the allowance from 4 sides.
2. Draw the resulting inner rectangle of the product base into squares of the established size. The distance between the rows is 1 cm.
   

   We draw the fabric, which we have chosen for the warp, into squares, considering that between the squares, leave 1 cm for the seams and allowances

3. Draw a fabric for cutting squares. Remember that it is necessary to add another 6 cm to the seam allowance and folds to the set size.
4. Sew all the squares together to make a ribbon.Then iron all seams to the right side with an iron.
   

   We sew with the help of a sewing machine all the squares together in one tape

5. Apply the resulting tape with the outer side to the "front" of the base material, adjust it under the line, stitch on the machine. After that, lay the vertical folds, pin pins. Then sew all vertical seams. In the end, should get "pockets".
   

   We take one stitched strip from different squares and pin it with the help of stealth to the base, and then form the folds

   

   We sew first the top of the squares, and then the side seams

   

   Sew the side seams strictly along the seam between the squares

6. The resulting hole pockets need to fill with filler - padding, and then stitch. Continue along the same lines and on.
   

   We fill the squares of the first sewn strip with filler, and then we attach the lower part of this strip to the base:

When all the squares are sewn, fold the front sides and the lining. Sew along the contour of the pads. Leave 25 cm to unscrew it. Then gash to the end using the method of a secret seam.

The next strip must first be folded, then sewn to the previous strip with the front side facing the front, getting into the seam lines

They should not be contrasting, too bright - it will excite the baby.

   On the fabric draw rectangles or squares, then run a line along the lines and make a fold in the middle

3. Sew the gauze to the inside. In it, make holes through which the filling material - synthetic winterizer is pushed through.

4. Stuff it, sew lining fabric.
   

   We cut out the sintepon and the lower part of the blanket, put all the inside out to the inside out
