T-Shirt Pillow


Well friends, here was my first crafty thing I made since becoming a wife.
I call it Tshirt Pillow :)

I've made one of these before, a long time ago, and I loved it! So I decided to use one of Brad's shirts that we got on our honeymoon. As much as he loved this shirt, and only got to wear it once.. because our washing machine shrunk it! I swear it was the machine, not me! I even washed it on cold, and hung it up to dry! It wasn't my fault!

Making the shirt was super easy, it took maybe a half hour, and most of that time was stuffing the shirt. 
4 quick seams along the top, bottom and sides, with one of the sleeves, leaving half way open, so you can turn it right side out and stuff it. Then hand sew it shut.I used a ton of stuffing for it, because it was a pretty big shirt, and we wanted it super fluffy! 
Brad loves it, and I love it too! It's so comfy, it's currently on our giant bean bag. And it's so nice, because of wear the sleeves are, you can put your head there and have pillow all around you! It's amazing!
Super easy craft. If you have extra shirts lying around, here is a good use for them! Or if your kid out grows their favorite shirt, well there ya go! Now you don't have to get rid of it. :)

My next craft I'm working on.. A maxi skirt! :)
