Sew cherry stone cushions

Start by drawing a stencil on a sheet of Paper or print out a suitable template. Adjust the size and shape to your taste - for these instructions we are using a simple five-pointed star, which is particularly suitable for beginners. Lay two layers of fabric on top of each other, draw the star shape on the wrong side of the fabric with a pencil and cut it out. Make sure that you leave 1 cm extra fabric next to the drawn line so that you have enough seam allowance later.

Place the two cut-out fabric stars on top of each other with the wrong sides together and secure them with pins. Sew the edges with a straight stitch, making sure to leave a small opening through which the cushion can be turned and filled.

Turn the cushion right side out and fill it with cherry stones. A funnel can help you to fill the stones more easily. As soon as the cushion has reached the desired fullness, sew the opening by hand using a needle. To add a personal touch, you can attach small patches or appliqués with a few stitches.

Place your finished cherry stone cushion in the microwave for a few minutes and enjoy the cozy warmth it provides. Whether as a personal comforter on cold days or as a lovingly homemade gift for family and friends - your cherry stone cushion is sure to bring joy.
