The shirt Pillow cover

I had to share this pillow cover, that I made the other week, with you guys because it was soooooo easy!

  1. To make this I measured the height and width of the pillow and cut out two rectangles from an old shirt (which I had buttoned up). 
  2. I then simply sewed the perimeters of these rectangles together (right sides facing). Remember to leave on button undone as it makes the next step easier.
  3. Finally I unbuttoned the shirt from the outside and turned it so that the right sides where on the outside and places the pillow inside. The buttons act as a closure, which is what makes the pillow cover so nice and easy.

Also If your shirt had any added details on it, then you can make a feature of these on your pillow cover.
To make this cover, I used one of my sisters out grown shirts, but if you don't have a shirt you can use, you'll often find shirts at a super cheap price in charity shops.
I had so much fun making this pillow cover. If you have any questions on how to make one for your self, leave a comment (as I know I don't always explain things thoroughly).
I hope this has inspired you!
