How to Make a Large Lumbar Pillow (the EASY way!)

Want an extra-large lumbar pillow without the steep price tag? This simple tutorial is the easiest way to make a beautiful custom DIY bolster pillow that is really easy on your budget.

Materials needed:

– Table runners with two layers sewn together – Polyfill ( I used two large bags) Seam ripper – Scissors – Needle and thread Iron-on velcro

Choose a double-sided runner that is two pieces of fabric sewn together. Open one end of your runner about 4-6 inches. Snip the seams carefully with a seam ripper or scissors.

STEP 1

Stuff your table runner with polyfill. It's so easy my kids helped. We used two bags, but you can use as much or as little as you want. Add polyfill until you like the firmness of your pillow!

STEP 2

Once the runner is filled to your liking, sew up the end you opened earlier. If you don't want to sew (or can't!) you can use iron-on hem tape or velcro. 

STEP 3

I stitched mine closed with green thread first and then did my best to match the pink blanket stitching.
