You Need:

Start by opening your design program and adding a blank shape. We used a heart.

Add all of the names individually, and move them around the pillow until the image is filled.

Now you need to delete the outside shape (if you are using Silhouette Studio you will need to make a compound path, delete the heart, and release compound path)

Now weed your design. Place it on your empty blank and press it with your Heat Press.
