Default Looking for help on making pillows out of a zippered jacket

My mom just passed away at 100 years old. She had a fleece jacket that she wore for the past several winters, always refusing to get a new one because she never believed she would live for the next winter. We all tried to get her to wear new ones that we got her. (She was able to walk and get around until the last four weeks of her life). She refused because she was so frugal. It became a family joke. I would like to cut the jacket up and make pillows for each of her four great-grandchildren. The zipper is broken so it can't be used as part of the pillow.
I tried to find instructions online but they all show the buttons or zippers of shirts/jackets as the center of the pillow. Any suggestions on how to cut the jacket up and resew into pillow covers?
Thank you
Mary Ann
