Cut the Printed cotton cloth 88 Cm X 200 Cm and Plan cotton cloth 88Cm X 200 Cm. Cut 4 Pieces of 2 mm thickness Sponge sheet to 77cm X 91 Cm.

Fold the two Cotton cloth in the Center and make it 88cm X 100 cm. Put the sponge in the center of both cloth. Leave equal space on four sides. Fold the cloth in the corners as shown in the figure to make the cutting end not visible. Make all the cloth straight and Pin with Bell Pins in all sides, this help while sewing.

Sew using sewing machine with thick and Quality thread. Low quality thread or thin thread cut while sewing in printed cloths. Saw carefully in the folding edges. Remove the Pins after each line sew.

Before Sew Mark where to saw. Sewing lines are only able to fold easily. So as per the pillow size make the line for Sewing.

1) First sew in the correct center of the bed. Because pillow cover is in the center of the bed.

2) Pillow is 21cm X 38cm and its cover is 42cm X 38 cm. So mark 21 cm from center for both sides.

3) For other side mark 19 cm from center line and sew.

4) Remaining 23 Cm on one side and 20 cm on other side.

5) Mark 17 Cm on all sides and sew.

Sew all the lines parallel, Then only when fold it look neat and fit inside the pillow.

The most tedious process is Sewing the Zip with Velvet cloth. Both cloth are very smooth and the outcome also want be neat. Now the Pillow Cover size want to be 42cm X 38 cm so cut 46 X 40 velvet cloth. First open the Zip and sew it on the sides of the velvet cloth and then sew from the opposite side of the zip , this make the zip come out and looking very neat in the edges, also guard the velvet cloth threads from come out. Cut the Extra Zip and put hand stretch in the start and end point of the zip.

Fold the Bed in the stitch lines and put it in the center of the Pillow and check it able to zip and unzip.

Now the Last part of the Sewing is fitting the Cover with the bed. Spread the pillow cover in the center of the bed and pin it on the edges. Now you found the stitches for Zip match with the stitches in the bed. Put the stitch over the zip stitch and bed. Now the Pillow come bed is ready.

First fold the inner folds and then fold near the zip and close the zip. If you want it as bed unzip it and unfold the bed.

I already have a biggest one and now the small one join with the family. We use the big one for last 1 year we able to wash it and due to use of sponge it weight less.
