The multitude of fabrics available on the market gives us a huge field to show off. On the other hand, it is sometimes a difficult choice when we have to decide what to sew pillows for a specific interior. Below we have prepared for you some examples of what fabrics can be used to sew pillowcases.
Fabric decorative pillows – what materials to choose?
Velor cushions
It's an absolute classic! You can bet on plain velor pillowcases in one color or combine several colors of velor pillows. Smooth velor pillows are also a great base for arranging with other textiles.
Thick weave fabric cushions
Pillows made of thick woven fabrics are a great accent, especially when you need variety, but you prefer not to put on a stronger pattern. Pillows made of woven fabrics should be combined with smooth pillowcases, which will allow you to create a delicate, neutral composition, which will not be too simple and will bring coziness to the interior. A great example is the boucle fabric, which is a very fashionable element of interior textiles.
Linen cushions
Cushions made of linen fabrics are a great accent for interiors where natural accents are appreciated. There are many types of linen fabrics - from those with a very fine weave and uniform color, through linen with a stronger structure, to linen fabrics with a clear pattern. Linen pillows can also be combined with pillowcases made of other fabrics.Patterned fabric cushions
Patterned cushions are a stronger accent in the interior. It is worth noting, however, that the choice of patterned fabrics is huge and we have at our disposal both very intense patterns as well as very delicate ones, which will be a great base for an interior maintained in a delicate style. Another possibility is to create an original pattern that will appear on the fabric. Patterned pillows will look great both in the form of velor pillows, as well as cotton, linen and woven pillows.
Let's not forget about the details!
Finally, it is worth noting that it is a great idea to add small details to the pillowcase that will give it a final finish. Insets that can be made of various fabrics are great for this role. It is worth combining contrasting colors in this way, which will emphasize the base shade of the pillow. Another proposal is decorative tassels - in the corners of the pillow or in the form of a tape. Among such details, decorative cords, tapes with felt balls or tapes with fringes can also be given as examples.
