Recycled pillow

My younger son got the pillow with the birds (see previous post) well; he saw it and said "This is mine!!"  So I needed to make a pillow for my older one too.
I have an overlock sewing maschine, and often when I throw away the offcutts I wish I could recycle it...


Well now I have found a way.. and it works quite well!



I first made a pillowcase from a scrap of sintetic fabric..
(yes recykled aswell... it was an offcut I saved)


Then I filled it up with the offcut from the overlock sewing maschine, and closed the gap....



My son wanted his name on it.. and a football... well the football is a round scrap of fleece fabric which is soft...
He loves it and he sleeps with it as I write this post!
