My friend Cindy was distraught over her special keepsake Halloween sweater falling apart. It was given to her by her beloved mom, who passed away 15 years ago. So she asked me to try and rescue the sweater. There was nothing left of the sweater other than the adorable applique of the black cat (he's big). So I recommended that he be put on a pillow, so that she could keep him out all the time and remember her mom.
Here's the pillow I did for her featuring her black cat, I did a moon applique as well as a partial wall where the cat 'sits'.
She just loved it!
