old clothes


An old linen shirt+a bit of Liberty of London lawn+a Sashiko panel from my projects "archives"=a fun pillow.  Front button placket from a repurposed shirt=easier than a zipper.
Trying to look at things in a greener way these days. How about you?

  1. that is so incredibly clever to use an old shirt as the pillow closure! I have some old shirts that i was going to harvest the buttons from and then recycle the fabric...this would be a much better second life for them! Your pillow is very pretty.

  3. How clever are you! I love the back-of-the-pillow idea, and the front is wicked too.
