Turn your old fashion tees or kids clothes into funky pillows and soft toys with just a few stitches and stuffs. Seriously this project is soooo dang easy that you will want to make a gazillion! The owl tee was an oldie from my closet. (I bought it a Target years ago). The space ship was a design that was featured in my book, 101 Tees and the headphones tee was from the thrift shop.
Select a graphic tee to turn into a pillow.
Cutting through both layers, cut around the design. Make sure you leave a little border for sewing.
Pin right-sides to right-sides and sew around the edge.
Leave an opening for turning and stuffing.
Turn right-side out.
Stuff the pillow and hand sew the opening closed.
Yep – it is that easy to make a t-shirt pillow!
Ready for hugs and love!
Make soft toys by following the design shape.
Kids love them!

Cathie – these rock, seriously they completely rock my world. I was about to “put down” an old David Bowie tee but methinks I might just have to put it in the crib w/my Sumo wrestler. Oh and yes, I am now following your blog. XO Angela
