Dashing through the snow, in a one horse open sleigh… {insert bad singing}… Ha! Yesterday I shared that one of my favorite ways to transform a room from everyday to holiday is with throw pillows. My tutorial for a Christmas Throw Pillow with Foil Vintage Truck shows just how easy it is too. Now I am sharing how to sew an adorable Dashing Through The Snow Christmas throw pillow! Plus, I’m giving you a FREE cut file that you can load to your Cricut Design Space account and use for a pillow, t-shirt, art print, card, anything you want!

Step-By-Step Throw Pillow Tutorial
1. Cut base pillow fabric – using a clear ruler, cut 19×19” squares. I chose to make my pillows two sided. If you’d like to do the same, cut one 19×19” red and one plaid per pillow.
2. Design – open Cricut Design Space, and upload my free cut file. It will be in two pieces so that you can cut two colors.
3. Cut foil and white iron-on – cut each element, remembering to flip the design for iron-on.
4. Iron – place each layer on the pillow, making sure to center the design, and iron.
5. Sew pillow – follow the directions in my Valentine cross-stitch pillow tutorial.
