Create a Heartwarming Memory Pillow from a Shirt
It’s a Simple and Thoughtful Project!
Remember someone special by making memory pillows from their shirts. This simple project will prompt warm memories for years to come and is a lovely and thoughtful gift.
Start with a shirt that’s in good condition and choose a pillow form that fits it. The designer was working with a men’s fitted dress shirt with a 15 ½” neck and a 16″ pillow form, but you’ll want to use whatever size pillow form works best for your project (instructions are included for fitting a form to a shirt).
A remembrance quote can be machine or hand-embroidered on the pocket. The message shown here is a beautiful option, or you can choose a fun or thoughtful phrase commonly expressed by the shirt’s owner or one of their favorite quotes. Whatever makes you think of them.
