This is the back of the pillow - can you guess what it's made of? In case you can't - it's made from a man's pinstripe shirt! Super easy as you use the front portion with the buttons as the back of the pillow - no zippers or handsewing a seam!
Here is the front. The flower is made from a torn strip of fabric from one of the sleeves, gathered and topped with a button. I also tied on four buttons from the wrist cuffs in the corners of the pillow.
Here's a closeup of the flower and one of the buttons in the corners. I hope the gals will like it. It's very simple, but oh so soft. I love the fact that I recycled a shirt!

Clever idea Susan!! I like it!! :::smiles::: Shelly
That is such a great idea Susan! I had a blast at AG chatting with you Friday and wish I could have been there for the entire retreat...next year for sure!
What a great pillow Susan. I love that it is made from a shirt, and I guess it would work from a blouse also. I know you are having a ball at the retreat, and I can't wait for you to post some photos of the great things you made there.
