Pattie’s Pointer: These are great to make several at a time to give as gifts. Can also be placed in the freezer for an instant cold pack for headaches or injuries!

Steps:
1. For inner pillow, lay one piece onto other piece, right sides together. Sew two long sides and one short end together, turn. Iron 1/4” hem to inside along open end.

2. Fill pillow with corn. Sew open end closed.

3. For decorative pillowcase, follow step one, using decorative fabric. Sew hem into place on open end, leaving end open. Sew fringe along closed end of pillowcase, folding raw edges under at each side.

4. For ties, cut length of ribbon in half. Sew one end of each piece onto inside center of each side of open end of pillowcase.

5. Place pillow inside pillowcase. Tie ribbon into a bow. Cut streamer ends on diagonal.

6. To use, place inner pillow into microwave on high for 3-4 minutes. Place back in pillowcase. Place on sore muscles or use as a fancy foot warmer.
