Twisted Pin Tuck Pillow Fronts with Variations

There are a lot of variations available to how you create a twisted pin tuck pillow front. The full directions offer the details on how these two pillows were created and explain how you can change the results to have them create the texture and effect that you want to achieve. I'm anxious to try this technique on striped fabric to see how the stripes will twist. These pillows coordinate with the remote control holder I made for my living room.
