    what wonderful pillows - my 88 yr old step dad wears nothing but cowboy shirts with snaps, I've been collecting a few of them to make into a quilt maybe for his daughter, but I guess if I made pillows I could share with all of his kids. Thanks for the great ideals

    That is so nice. I wrapped one of daddy's shirts around my pillow when he died eight years ago and I kept it there for a few weeks. Ya can't help yer self.....love is love! Your project is so wonderful and I bet it was the hit of the season. Thanks for showing them. Blessings, Ruth

    What a clever idea for the pillow backing--placket already in place and ready to be "re-purposed". Thanks for sharing.
