3 Ways to Make a Bolster Pillow – wikiHow

To make a bolster pillow, cut 2 circles of the same size out of a piece of fabric. To form the body of the pillow, cut a piece of fabric that has a length of the circumference of the circles, and any width that you’d like, with 1/2 inch on each side for a seam allowance. Then, fold the rectangle in half so that the wrong side of the fabric is sewing, and sew the rectangle along the top seam. Attach one of the circles to the tube completely, and one half of the way. Finally, fold the pillow so the fabric is facing the right direction, and fill it with stuffing before sewing the hole shut.
