Pillow Filling
Our manufacturer focuses on little things like making sure the polyester filling or down filling is spread all the way to the corners of your pillow form.
Down Alternative Filled ( synthetic down ) This makes your pillow look fuller (thus better) once the form is inside your pillow case. This also means you don’t have a big, round ball of polyester filling bunching up in the middle of your square pillow form.
How do we do it? We use a fiber that is nearly 1/10 of the "normal polyester" fill fibers. This gives you the "staying power" of a down pillow with all the benefits of a hypo-allergenic pillow. This pillow fill alternative is many times known as "synthetic down." This is a very popular non-allergenic down or feather fill option.
Down Feather Filled ( real goose down and duck feathers )
This is the luxurious option for most designers. The feathers, though you don't see them, are really quite beautiful. Not only are these forms comfortable, but they also keep their shape very well. We offer a 10/90, 25/75, and 50/50 option, with the first number representing down and the second number representing feathers. As the down content goes up, the form gets smoother, lighter, and warmer. However, these forms are not an option for someone who is allergic to feathers or down. Please note that down/feather pillows are lofty, not firm, and are designed to be shaped.
100% Polyester Filled
This is the most commonly used pillow filling. This option has the greatest density of any fiber we use. This is great for anyone with allergies as it is hypo-allergenic. This fiber is commonly used in indoor and outdoor applications. (However, we do not warrant our pillow forms for outdoor use.)
Pillow Fabric Options
Feather-Proof 100% Cotton Fabric
We have all had it happen. Your down or feather filled furniture or apparel has a feather poke through the fabric. With down/feather pillow forms, we use a "feather-proof" fabric made of 100% cotton, with a 233-thread count. The result is a highly dense fabric that won’t let feathers fly, but offers a super-soft feel to the touch. We use this fabric on all our down/feather fills.
Woven Polyester / Cotton Blend Fabric
We provide a blended fabric on most of our pillow forms for a softer feel and a good price. This blends will vary from 50%/50% to 60%/40% based on availability. We make no promise of what blend (within this range) your pillow forms will have. We use this fabric on polyester fills, as well as with our synthetic down fills.
Non-Woven 100% Polyester Fabric
We offer non-woven polyester on our higher volume pillow forms to suit our more cost-conscious buyers. The non-woven polyester is commonly used for pillows that may be used outdoors. This polyester is more durable than other materials when wet and dried. (We do not warrant our pillow forms for outdoor use.) We use this fabric on polyester fill.
Pillow Sewing Techniques
We use what is called a "safety stitch" on all of our pillow forms. This means you have a single stitch on the inner seam and a serge seam on the outer seam. The result is that you'll find no little duck feathers (or other filling) waddling out onto your couch or bed.
100% American Made
Our Tennessee-based manufacturer ships your product straight from the hills of East Tennessee. All of our pillow forms are made by hand with commercial sewing machines. Yes, the "cut and sew operation” is still alive and well in America! We are proud to support American jobs in Tennessee.
