Introduction: T-Shirt Throw Pillow
This is a cute pillow you can make from an old T-shirt.
The Pink Floyd T-shirt was an adult small so I purchased a 14" square pillow form to place inside.
The Air Force T-shirt was an extra large so I used an 18" square pillow form for it.
Step 1: Supplies
T-shirt that is free from holes or stains
Piping or ruffle trim (optional)
Sewing machine
matching thread
scissors
measuring tape
Pillow form
Step 2: Cut T-shirt
Cut off the sleeves and then cut across the top of T-shirt, under the neckline. Cut the side seams open.
You will have 2 rectangles.
Step 3: Front of Pillow
Cut out a square 1" larger than your pillow form. Sew to a cotton backing, stitching 1/4" from the edge.
Step 4: Back of Pillow
The back of the pillow needs to overlap about 4 inches in the center so that it can be removed for washing.
Step 5: Pin and Sew With Piping
Pin front and back of pillow right sides together. Place piping in between the top and bottom pieces of pillow. Pin. Sew around edge.
Step 6: Turn Right Side Out
Turn the pillow cover right side out and place pillow form inside.
