http://www.craftstylish.com/assets/uploads/posts/43021/IMG_3836_xl.jpg I used a bit of old cardboard to make a template for my pillow. You could also use wrapping paper or craft paper. http://www.craftstylish.com/assets/uploads/posts/43021/IMG_3839_xl.jpg Then, use your template to lay out your buttons. This takes a bit of time but, trust me, it's worth it. Doing a layout will make sure all the buttons you want to use will fit on your pillow. The great thing about doing a layout is that if things don't seem to be working as you sew, you can move them around. I realized that the large buttons on the corners would be a problem when it came to sewing the pillow cover together, so I ended up moving them around.
Before I started sewing on the buttons, I marked the seam allowance on the back of the twill fabric. Using a pencil, I marked 1/2 inch around the whole square. As long as I kept my buttons within the lines, I knew I was good to go.
http://www.craftstylish.com/assets/uploads/posts/43021/IMG_3858_xl.jpg Sew on your buttons! I'm not going to lie; this takes a while but I found the whole exercise quite calming and a great TV-watching craft. I used a contrasting color for my thread to add a bit more interest.
http://www.craftstylish.com/assets/uploads/posts/43021/IMG_3860_xl.jpg The front of my pillow cover, all buttoned up. Once your front is all buttoned up, it's time to build your cover.
First, you'll attach the lining fabric to both the front and back of your cover. Pin your exterior fabric and your lining fabric right sides facing each other, and sew along what will be the bottom of your pillow cover using a 1/2-inch seam allowance.

http://www.craftstylish.com/assets/uploads/posts/43021/IMG_3871_xl.jpg The front of the cover, bottom sewn up, pinned, and ready to sew the lining and exterior together. Sew the lining to the exterior of both the front and back using a 1/4-inch seam allowance. This is to tack the lining to the exterior fabric, making final construction easier.
http://www.craftstylish.com/assets/uploads/posts/43021/IMG_3878_xl.jpg The fully assembled front and back pieces of the pillow cover. http://www.craftstylish.com/assets/uploads/posts/43021/IMG_3881_xl.jpg Pin your two pieces of fabric, right sides facing, with the finished edges along the bottom, and sew the three rough sides together using a 1/2-inch seam allowance. Once I sewed up my cover, I trimmed the edges to 1/4 inch and wrapped them with a tight zigzag stitch. The zigzag stitch helps keep the edges from fraying over the long run.
Turn your cover right side out.
http://www.craftstylish.com/assets/uploads/posts/43021/IMG_3888_xl.jpg Mark the cover for the snap closures. I put a snap every 1 inch. Sew on your snaps.
http://www.craftstylish.com/assets/uploads/posts/43021/IMG_3892_xl.jpg The snaps are attached to the pillow cover. I also sewed up the corners using a hidden whipstitch to make them look a bit more polished. http://www.craftstylish.com/assets/uploads/posts/43021/IMG_3894_xl.jpg Stuff your cover. I used a 12-inch x 12-inch pillow form from Ikea.
