Hi everyone! Andy here, from A Bright Corner. If your house is anything like mine, then you could use some quick and easy ways to add to your Valentine’s Day decor. Today I’m sharing a tutorial to make this quick, Cupid’s Arrow Valentine pillow!

- a 16″ pillow form
- 8″ x 17″ piece of Heat n Bond® Lite
- 1/2 yard of fabric for pillow front and back
- red and brown fabric scraps for applique
- Heart and Arrow Template
Step 1: From the 1/2 yard of main pillow fabric, cut 1 @ 16.5″ x 16.5″ and 2 @ 11.5″ x 16.5″

Step 3: Print the Heart and Arrow Template. With a pencil, trace three arrows and one heart shape on to the piece of Heat n Bond® Lite.

Step 4: Cut out around each shape, leaving about 1/4″ of space all the way around.

Step 5: Iron the Heat n Bond® Lite arrows to the wrong side of the brown fabric scraps. Iron the heart shape to the wrong side of a scrap of red fabric. Using sharp scissors, cut out along the drawn lines.

Step 6: Remove the paper backing from heart and arrows. Place as desired on to the 16.5″ x 16.5″ pillow front. Iron just the top two arrows in place.
