I found this pillow case from my neighbor and family friend's donation bags. I liked the embroidery and I need one more throw pillow for my living room. I also love the fabric. It also reminded me of those days when I visit my grandfather's house. They have a lot of these pillow cases.
I used the same technique when I printed the chevron and quatrefoil throw pillows. In this, I decided to print monogram "A" and word "relax".
I used my spray adhesive and my left over fabric paint.
Make sure to read the application instruction and use the temporary bond method.
Use a masking tape to stretch your fabric. Spray the adhesive at the back of the of the stencil (Again, I used cardstock and my Cricut machine. I know you can also use X-acto knife.). Arrange the cut monogram and word to your fabric.
Start painting using the foam brush. Just dub when you are painting the edges. Make sure to use a little amount of paint so it won't bleed.
Wait for a little bit to dry and remove your stencil.
Here's the monogram "A"
Here's the word "relax". I folded the pillow and secure with buttons.
Thanks for viewing!
you will abound in every good work.

Way cute and I love your post on Easy Ways to Join Link Parties because I have the same problem too. I only link to a few because it's so time consuming. What a great idea and thanks for inviting me over :)

I love this idea, Ela! I have a number of embroidered vintage pillowcases that I want to turn into throw pillows. But I've never thought about stenciling them. Thanks for sharing. ;)
