I have just finished making 4 shirt pillows for a sweet friend whose husband passed away last month. She has 4 children and these pillows will be Christmas gifts for them. Even though my shirts weren't as colorful as yours, they turned out really great! I'm so happy to have found your post!Kathy E.https://www.blogger.com/profile/15326822392780979118noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4035755590833291625.post-54960632008840365372018-06-18T22:49:45.224+10:002018-06-18T22:49:45.224+10:00What a great idea.

I don't think I've seen that done before - or if I have seen it, I didn't notice! I haven't started cutting my shirts yet so I'll make sure to keep them - even if I use the shirts for a quilt, it would be cute to include the buttons as is :) I have elebenty bazillion tiny white buttons so I wouldn't bother cutting them off to save as buttons, but now that you have me thinking outside the box, they'd be adorable as embellishments :)Sandra :)https://www.blogger.com/profile/16239494415344028806noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4035755590833291625.post-88210921502321861662016-07-01T05:23:38.575+10:002016-07-01T05:23:38.575+10:00Your cushion looks gorgeous Pam, and that is a fab...Your cushion looks gorgeous Pam, and that is a fabulous idea to use the buttons from the shirt as the cushion cover closure!!Jillhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04377276479172112517noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4035755590833291625.post-35409229294903848062016-07-01T02:23:58.029+10:002016-07-01T02:23:58.029+10:00I like your idea for the use of the button placket...I like your idea for the use of the button placket. I try to use them in the quilt, but their thickness does interfere with quilting. So now I have a collection of plackets. Thinking maybe a whole pillow of Dad's button plackets?

I used the placket from a shirt as a closure for an embroidered cushion a while ago, it was so much easier than making buttonholes myself! <br />Thanks for linking up to Ho, Ho, Ho and on We Sew too, good luck in the giveaway draw :)Celtic Thistlehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07033484481693226138noreply@blogger.com
