- Swingin’ Poodle Pillow Jazz up your living room or bedroom with a poodle pillow. Use the template to create a sassy poodle appliqué on a square pillow. Choose some polka dot fabric for the background to really make that poodle stand out. It’s a great way to add a touch of retro to your pad.

Add some sequins or rhinestones for that extra bit of 50s glam. You’ll be the talk of the town with your unique, handmade accessory.
- Diner Delight Table Runner Bring the diner vibe to your dining room with a table runner adorned with poodles. Use the template to create a row of poodles trotting down the length of your table runner. Use fabrics with checkered patterns or jukebox designs to complete the 50s diner look.
- Nifty Aprons Host your next dinner party or BBQ in style with a poodle apron. Appliqué a poodle onto the front pocket of a simple apron. Choose a fabric with a fun 50s print, like records or classic cars, and you’ll be cooking in style!
Tips to Keep You Hip
- Fabric Choice: Go for fabrics that remind you of soda shops and sock hops. Think pinks, blacks, whites, and maybe a splash of aqua or red.
- Embellishments: Don’t shy away from adding some bling. Sequins, beads, and embroidery can give your poodle projects that extra razzle-dazzle.
- Mix and Match: Combine different textures and patterns. Plaids, polka dots, and solids all have a place in your 50s-inspired creations.
