New Year is approaching, and with it - the desire to please yourself and loved ones with charming little things. But you really want to do something not only beautiful, but also useful in everyday life. We have an option! Cozy pillow Mouse will not leave anyone indifferent during the holidays and the whole next year! We will tell you how to sew it with your own hands!
1. Square pillow Mouse with a tail
You will need gray and white faux fur, filler (synthetic winterizer or any other), zipper and decorative eyes with a spout. The latter can be purchased at any craft store.
Cut out the main part, tail and two ears, remembering to leave small seam allowances. Sew the fur with the right side inward and follow the direction of the villi - they should go down. Stitch the ears into the face and connect all the other details, as in the picture.
You will be left with one unsewn side of the square, to which you will sew a zipper and sew a ponytail. In principle, you can do without the clasp by sewing the pillow completely. But keep in mind that this will make delicate faux fur more difficult to clean over time.
2. Pillow Mouse with herbs
You can make a real healing pillow from natural cotton, thick linen or burlap. As in the previous case, cut out the details according to the pattern and sew them together. For decoration, use artificial eyes, antennae threads, bows, ruffles, ribbons and beads.
Little Mice made of natural fabric can be filled with the same natural herbs - and you will get a fragrant pillow. For this, heather, lavender, sedge, thistle, willow-herb, yarrow, St. John's wort, thyme and other herbs at your discretion are suitable. But we do not recommend using such a pillow every day and keeping it for more than a year.

3. Pillow Mouse with cheese
If you are confident in your sewing skills and are not afraid of more difficult challenges, we offer you such an interesting scheme.

The main thing is not to overdo it with filler and volumetric details, so that you can still lie comfortably on it.
4. Triangular pillow Mouse
Such a simple scheme is good for those who do not like to sew a lot, but want to please their loved ones. You don't even need a complicated pattern - just draw triangles of the appropriate size and decorate as you see fit. By the way, such a pillow can also be made fragrant or filled with a grainy textured filler as a toy for the little ones.

5. Pillow "Mickey Mouse"
To sew a cartoon Mickey Mouse pillow, you will need a bright, variegated fabric and a simple pattern. There are only two secrets: do not forget to make allowances for the processing of edges and do not rush when you will trim round details. This is especially true of the part with the ears - carefully level the fabric so that it does not wrinkle or overtighten anywhere.
6. Travel pillow Mouse
Another simple, but extremely useful option that does not require a complex pattern. Draw it yourself in a convenient size - you can measure ready-made bus pillows. The most difficult thing here is the choice of filler, which must at the same time keep its shape well, but at the same time be compactly pressed to put the pillow in a backpack.
