.....left over fabric about 15 years ago used to make the "dummy" wedding dress for fitting purposes for my daughter. Fabric for some reason was like a $1 a yard. I guess no one needed the color.

I've only just seen pillows made from sweaters and I can see what you mean about eyeing off pillows for their texture and the possibilities of making into pillows.
And, no, you can't have too many pillows... LOL!!!
I can see you've already linked up. Sorry, I read my emails before I checked the link party page. Thanks for linking up your pillows!
ReplyDeleteNo problem. You've inspired me to go ahead and tell about another pillow I made recently for a friend. I hope you enjoy it as well.
