so i’ve got a fun upcycle for you tomorrow…but since i need my son to finish taking pictures…i thought i would show you the “boy” pillows i made for it….
BUT–before we begin…you need to go HERE and see the basic way i do pillows…with an opening in the back..cause boys are gross…and i know these pillows will need to be washed…and that just makes it soooo much easier!
first pillow is the bike….i took a needle and embroidery thread…
i bought this pack with my joanns coupon for like $3.00..has almost every color….good investment!
then i just mimicked it…
i originally was going to do piping in between…but ran into some snaffus.
so i scrapped them for just strips of red to break up the fabric
and same with the star wars one…
i had to piece it together more like a puzzle…but it wasn’t too bad
the back is the leftover star wars fabric from the vest

Oh my goodness, those are super cute!!! I LOVE the one of the bike that he drew. Totally adorable!!! Wish I had a drop of that creativity and ability to do that!!!

I, personally, find that ruffle VERY manly. 🙂

These look great! And you can never have too many cushions – I have 11 on my single bed alone! But then I cannot seem to stop making them!
Have a great day!
