The Cityscape Bench Pillow

Build Stories and Creativity with the Cityscape Bench Pillow

Imagine your little one snuggling up with a good book, tracing the colorful skyline with their finger over the Cityscape Bench Pillow as they dream about the stories unfolding in their own city. This project brings together vibrant design and imaginative play, creating opportunities for connection, learning, and creativity.


Whether you’re sewing this pillow for your home or as a gift, it’s the perfect way to add color, charm, and storytelling into your space. Let me show you how this pattern can help you create something meaningful and fun for your family.

What Makes This Pattern Unique

  •   A Skyline That’s All Yours: Choose between Day and Night colorways to customize your pillow.
  •   Confidence-Building Techniques: Learn Stitch-and-Flip piecing for clean lines and precise corners while mastering directional prints.
