Supplies:

1 yard of your choice fabric (cut into a perfect square)
1 pillow form, square
Hint: The softer the fabric, the easier to do.
My choice is cotton or chintz

Instructions:

Lay fabric with right side down (Iron if needed...no wrinkles).

Centre pillow form so that there are 4 points above the straight line of pillow form on all 4 sides.

Take the two fabric points that are above and below the top and bottom of the straight edge of pillow form and fold each point toward centre of pillow form.
Smooth...the two points should just slightly overlap.

 Now, take the two remaining fabric points and bring them together, tie a pretty knot and tuck under until satisfied with the appearance.

Hint 2: Use Fray-Check-available at most fabric or craft shops.
This is a wonderful product because it truly does keep the edges of the fabric from fraying and looking messy.
Above is an example of what the final outcome will look like (without Lily, my cat).

I simply added some silk flowers to give the pillow a bit more colour since my fabric was a very light seafoam green. I also used flannel...therefore the
"bunchy look".

Yours will look a whole lot better!
