Repurposed Men's shirt
 

I have been sorting, destashing, cutting and kitting this week. So when I got to the 3 men's shirts to deconstruct, I decided to look for options as I had a shirt that I just didn't want to cut up. I found this blog with an idea other than just cutting up the shirt for strips and such. If I only had a wool sweater to felt...

Cute idea!

Great ideas here! Thanks for sharing!

Clever, clever, clever and oh so cute! Thanks for the link! Check out your local thrift stores for wool sweaters.

Very nice idea for sure .. I took a man's shirt and turned it into an apron for each one of the older 2 grands .. they loved it ..

I made pillows just like these years ago....for 4-H. I used flannel on the back side then, but now I might try it again with minkie. Thanks for the memories....:)

Great idea for used clothes. I do the envelope back for covers soon much quicker and easier to change out

What a great and time saving tip this is! I have a few pillows to make soon for a friend from her father's ties. She also gave me some shirts so I think I will be using those shirts for the pillow backing. For me, it will be easier to do that than put in a zipper or other closure .... plus she will be happy to have the shirts included. Thanks for this link. (I used to read Betz White's blog all the time.)

I'd like to see the aprons - and instructions for a "newbie"......

Cute idea......Sewing with Nancy had some great ideas also....
