How to Protect a Window Sill for a Cat
- 1). Measure the length and width of your window sill. You will make a pillow that fits inside the sill with the window open. Most windows are approximately 24 inches long and 12 to 14 inches wide.
- 2). Use fabric that matches your interior decoration and will not look out of place in your window sill.
- 3). Cut two pieces of fabric that are each 26 inches long and 16 inches wide. Allow 2 inches of extra fabric on each side of the fabric for a seam.
- 4). Turn each piece of fabric over so that you are sewing the window sill pillow inside out.
- 5). Use a needle and durable thread to sew three of the four sides together using a loop stitch. Leave about 1/4 inch between each loop to create a tightly stitched pillow.
- 6). Turn the pillow right side out and stuff it with cotton filling. Use several handfuls of filling to get an even amount of filling in the pillow.
- 7). Sew the final side shut and cut off the excess fabric to make a trim seam.
- 8). Place the pillow in the window sill.
