Abstract
Rectangular panel pieces are sewn together by sewing the panel ends to an adjacent panel side so that the side edge of first panel is in alignment with the end of the second panel. Four panel pieces are assembled together in this manner. The free panel edges are then folded over and sewn first to the unattached portion of the adjacent panel edge and the balance further folded and sewn to the adjacent panels free end.
Claims11
A pillow construction comprising:
- four parallelogram shaped panel pieces having edges longer than their ends,
- the first end of each panel being joined along a first side of an adjacent panel with the edge of a first side of such panel being in alignment with the edge of a first end of an adjacent panel,
- each panel being folded and the second side of each panel being joined to the first side and the second end of an adjacent panel.
A method of manufacturing a pillow incorporating four main panel pieces comprising the steps of:
- stitching together first and second of the panels adjacent an end of the first panel and a side of a second panel to form a first abutting section,
- stitching together third and fourth panels adjacent to a side of the third panel and an end of the fourth panel to form a second abutting section,
- joining first and second abutting sections adjacent to the edge of each section that incorporates both panels,
- joining the free side of each panel to the free portion to the adjacent panel side and to the end of that adjacent panel.
