T-shirt Pillow

Total Time Needed: 2-3 Hours

Turn your child's team shirt into a postseason souvenir that she can enjoy all year long.

Materials

  • T-shirt, prewashed
  • Scissors and pinking shears
  • Square preformed pillow (ours was 12 inches)
  • Cotton fabric, prewashed (optional)
  • Iron-on adhesive (we used HeatnBond UltraHold)
  • Iron

Instructions

1. From the front or back of the shirt, cut a square at least 3 inches larger than the pillow. Cut another square the same size from the cotton fabric (or from the other side of the T-shirt).

2. Line the edges of the back of one square with strips of adhesive and iron them in place according to the package directions.

3. Remove the paper backing from 3 strips, lay the other fabric square on top (right side out), and iron together the edges.
