You can choose a color you like to make the surface of the tiger pillow.

Cut two pieces of flannel with the same size, align the edges and corners of the two pieces of flannel, and sew them with one stitch and one thread. When sewing, the needle and thread should be as dense as possible, and the length of each needle and thread should be reasonable, so that the edge effect will be more interesting.
