Cot pillow
A friend has asked me to make a cot quilt for her newborn grand-son. She sent me the fabric for it and said if there was enough left, could I maybe make a pillow cover. I asked her what size and she couldn't tell me. As anyone got an idea how large/small a cot pillow has to be??? Thanks for your help

What is your definition of "cot"? May be way different from mine(USA).....also, here it is recommended strongly that babies NOT sleep with pillows and now I understand, not even blankets of any sort...preventative measure against SID? correct me if I'm wrong- new moms out there.....

Here's one:

It's eventually to be used for preschool nap pads.

Never heard of a cot size here in the USA. Sorry. Your friend needs to tell you the dimensions of the pillow so you can make a pillowcase to fit it. I didn't think that babies slept with a pillow.

Thanks for your help and suggestions!!! Yes, I do know about safety issues and my babies never had pillows, later on only what I called a "cuddly pilly" (abt 15 x 20 cm) and they even kept and used them until they were teenagers.... 
. It's amazing how many different sizes are offered for kids/babies pillows also depending on the countries. I will see how much of fabric is left first and then I'll make a decision.
Again thanks and I wish you all a lovely week-end!!! <3
