My friend [livejournal.com profile] exile618 gave me a few of his old t-shirts, thinking I'd want to wear them for just knocking around the house/painting/doing stuff that requires wearing older clothes. Nope, wrong, I wanted to turn them into pillows! So this is a surprise for him, but I'm sure he's not going to come here to see it...

I've only done one so far... I want to see how it goes over with him before I decide to make the other two.

I decided the edges needed something to hide my inability to stitch a straight line decorate it a bit, so I blanket-stitched with yarn. (Thanks [livejournal.com profile] kickandslide for posting the little tutorial on how to do that, long time ago - I've used it so much!! ^.^ &hearts)

Just one idea for what to do with old t-shirts. Sometime soon I'll be taking some of my own old ones and making a t-shirt quilt! ^_^
