Da ich im wahren Leben kaum mehr dazu komme, tue ich es aber doch liebend gerne auf langen Autofahrten! Darum habe ich mir schon vor langer Zeit ein Kissen dafür genäht.....denn Ihr kennt das sicher. Irgendwann wacht man mit steifem Nacken und im schlimmsten Fall auch noch ein wenig Spucke am Kinn auf...*giggel* Mit diesem Kissen passiert das nicht so schnell. Es ist echt gemütlich und ist super schnell genäht. Es liegt bei uns immer eines im Auto und ich werde immer wieder darauf angesprochen. Da ich im letzten Jahr mal eine Anleitung für den WDR geschrieben habe, dachte ich mir.....ich kann sie hier ja auch mal zeigen. Vielleicht gibt es unter Euch ja auch ein paar Autoschläfer. ;-) Also.........los geht es: Ihr benötigt nicht viel. Fleecestoff oder Samtstoff oder Breitcord Baumwollwebware Füllwatte oder ein altes Federkissen passendes Nähgarn Stecknadeln Maßband oder Lineal Schere oder Rollschneider Zunächst die Stoffe zuschneiden. Es werden zwei Stücke Fleece (oder Samt oder Breitcord) in der Größe 52 x 52 cm und ein Stück Baumwollwebware für eine kleine Tasche in der Größe 12 x 17 cm zugeschnitten Die kleine Tasche nun an allen Seiten mit einem Zickzack-Stich versäubern und alle Kanten einen cm breit umbügeln. Nur die obere Kante absteppen. Danach die Tasche in einem Abstand von vier cm vom Rand entfernt auf ein Kissenteil aufnähen. Im nächsten Schritt die beiden Fleecestoffe rechts auf rechts aufeinander stecken und an drei Seiten - wie auf dem Bild zu sehen - zusammenstecken und danach steppen. An der vierten Seite - hier auf dem Bild unten - nur in der Mitte ca. 10 cm breit zusammensteppen. Die Ecken einkürzen und das Kissen wenden. Nach dem Wenden zwei Nähte rechts und links von der Mittelnaht steppen. Nun die beiden so entstandenen Kammern mit Watte füllen. Im letzten Schritt die beiden Öffnungen von Hand oder mit der Nähmaschine schließen. Das fertige Kissen sollte nun so aussehen: Schon ist das Autokissen fertig! Jetzt nur noch ins Fahrzeug steigen, das Kissen unter den Gurt schieben und es sich als Beifahrer während der Fahrt gemütlich machen. :-) Und? Wäre das was für Euch? Dann viel Spaß beim Nähen! Falls Ihr die Anleitung aus der Sendung mal sehen möchtet.....dann könnt Ihr das hier tun: *klick* :-) Liebe Grüße Karin
