WAKA WAKA Warm Hands

What's better than a pillow? A pillow with mittens! What's better than a pillow with mittens? A PAC-MAN pillow with mittens! In this instructable I will show you how to take whatever kind of crazy fun fabric you have on hand and turn it into a pillow with a twist. A pillow with mittens attached so no matter if you sleep with your hands above the pillow or under they will always be warm.

Step 1: Materials Needed

Materials that you will need:
1. Fabric of your choice, 2 pieces each 24 inches long by 16 inches wide ( I raided Grandma's scrap box)
2. Two 8 inch square pieces of fleece or felt ( Which for me was scavenged from a friends remnant pile)
3. A small piece of black  felt for the eyes
4. Stuffing
5. A sewing machince

I like this!
And the name also! Ever I found quite interesting about WAKA in Swahili means warm (or something similar...)

That is an awesome idea! What a great pillow!

Yes the kids think it is the AWESOME! I was thinking if I could find a Mario Bros. pattern that I could do green fleece tubes along the sides and connect around the top like warp pipes. Then you could pretty much put both your arms all the way in!

A warp pipe WOULD be awesome!

TWO THUMBS UP! My vote is for hands on the underside of pillow. That's how I roll! This is fun because it's adaptable to any pattern. I think two big lady bugs would make cute mittens.
