  Here are three types of fringes on Polar Fleece Toss Pillows- All three of these pillows are NO SEW, but lots of cutting-Need sharp scissors or Rotary Cutter 1. short fringe, pull through-I used a seam ripper for little hole-regular square hypoallergenic pillow insert from  www.Gstreetfabrics.com -14 inch I cut the squares for each side 15 +4 and 4=19 inch The fringe was 5 inches in on all sides leaving. 2. was a 12 x 6 round lumbar regular insert.  This one is regular knotted fringe 3. was a 12 x6 rectangular lumbar.  This one was a long pull through to give a braided long woven edge all around of the contrasting side color.
