Pottery Barn Inspired Halloween Crow Pillow

I am excited to share my latest fall project with you…my Pottery Barn inspired Halloween crow pillow! I don’t know about you but I love crows! I think it may be left over from my favorite childhood book Johnny Crow’s Garden. However…this crow has a very different look!


I knew it would be next on my to-do list when I saw this…Pottery Barn’s Halloween Crow Pillow. This guy is really scary, isn’t he?

And while mine, a vintage crow from The Graphics Fairy added to a checkerboard and tweaked a bit, is not quite as scary, he certainly helps to usher in the season!
Here’s what you will need:

• Osnaberg fabric for the backing for the crow graphic
• Crow graphic printed at 8x10 size on iron-on transfer paper (I use Avery brand iron-on transfers for light fabrics. I have already reversed it for you.)
• Burlap for the pillow cover
• Pillow insert (Mine is down and came from Goodwill for $3.00)

And here’s what you will do:

1. Following package directions, apply the crow graphic transfer to the Osnaberg fabric
2. Stitch the fabric to the center of the front of your pillow cover
3. Finish the pillow with an envelope style closure.
4. Pop in the pillow form and…

…taaaa daaa! Here it is! I left the edges untrimmed to give it more of a vintage look, but you could always trim them if you prefer.

And just in case you are wondering about the pillow in the background, it’s my Jack-O-lantern pillow with interchangeable faces…a little bit of fun Halloween décor for the grandies! You will find a full tutorial here.

And our CEO Ozzie reminds me to tell you that there is even a little pocket in the back to store the unused pieces! Fun!

And here’s another fun Halloween pillow…my Pottery Barn inspired no-sew boo pillow! And you don’t have to be able to sew a stitch to create it!
As you can see, I am all set for Halloween pillows! Now if only I could find some little pumpkins so I could finish my decorating!
