A Stuffed Vest Pillow

Not a stuffed shirt, but a very stuffed vest.

I have always loved this vest. The colors and it was a gift from my love years ago. But it has always been too small and I am clearing out unworn clothes.

So vesty pillow is born. It’s small, just 12 x 12.

What a fabulous way to save a great print! Better to see the light of day than to be stuck in a closet…nice repurpose!

That is a funky pillow, I love the pattern.
If I didn’t know the background, I would have assumed it was made intentionally to look like that and not an upcycled project.

So good for so many reasons! The material itself, of course; the story behind it, and the saving of the material.

What a beautiful way to give new life to a loved clothing item. I have been holding on to a similar, too small jacket with no plan in mind for it. A pillow might be just the thing!

That looks so nice! & also, you’ve still got some pretty scrappy bits to save for another special stitchy later on. That’s the best!
