Several layers of fabric, a couple of lines - and the motive comes to light! Thanks to simple carving, colorful motifs appear on the pillows.
We interpreted the traditional technique of the American Indians in a modern spirit. We have no doubt that this technique is perfect for decorating accessories in any style, as well as clothing, and not only for children.![](http://img.ballardsicecream.com/img/burd-2020/1250/proreznie-applikacii-napodushkah-svoimi-rukami.jpg)
For the upper side of the pillow you will need: 3 layers of different fabrics for the upper side of the pillow, all size. 45 x 45 cm; motif patterns, pins, sewing threads, scissors, felt-tip pen for copying onto fabric.

Step 1
Lay the three layers of fabric exactly on top of each other and pin them along the edge with pins.

Step 2
Lay out the main motif template in the middle of the top layer. Motive pins around the edges.

Step 3
Transfer the contours of the motif onto the fabric with a felt-tip pen with carbon ink.

Step 4
Sew along the contoured lines on the machine. The inside of the presser foot of the machine lies exactly on the line - that is, the seam passes behind the motive, at a distance of 0.3 cm from the line. Cut the ends of the threads.

Step 5
Cut the top layer of fabric along the outline of the motif. The seam is, as before, outside the motive and is not damaged when cutting the fabric.

Step 6
Pins the next part of the motive with pins, in our case it's an apron. Then use the felt-tip pen to transfer its contours to the fabric.

Step 8
Now cut the next layer of fabric along the contour line of part of the motif (as described in step 5). The top side of the pillow is ready!
