From quilter's trash to kitty's treasure
 

[ATTACH=CONFIG]580444[/ATTACH]

I bought new sheets that came with queen size pillowcases, which I cut down to fit standard size pillows. I used the parts I cut off of the pillowcases, some batting I trimmed off the edge from my last quilt, and stuffed it with the too-small-to-use snippets I've been saving up. Literally all my "Trash", lol

My booberry likes to sit on a shelf under my desk, and he seems pretty comfy on his new pillow!

Excellent job.......waste not want not!!!! Kitty needs to be comfortable too.

awe! he sure looks comfy nice job

very nicely done

Very cute!

Oh how cute!!! Anything to keep our furkids happy!
Love your kitty.

Cats crack me up! Cute use of scraps

Cute fur baby and its pillow

How perfect. A nice soft place to perch!

Very cute... Whenever I make (or buy) something specifically for the cat, she won't use it. Then what I dont want her to sit on is where she likes to sit. I'm glad your cute kitty has accepted your gift!

Great idea and better than bought!

Very nice pillow and I think he is settled in and really comfy.

Very sweet! He looks comfy!

Rob

very cute.

Booberry looks very content on his new pillow. Great idea.

My cats want to keep an eye on me, so no matter where I am, they position themselves so that they can see me. Your very nice kitty is probably doing the same.

Nice kitty cushion. I made a quilt for my son's cat. My cat prefers the bed or the recliner.

I love your "waste not, want not" slogan. My mother pounded that one into me and I'm glad.

Love the idea of stuffing with snippets! I will start saving mine from now on. Great job using "leftovers".

What a great treat for your furbaby! He looks so comfy.

Love it! and he is quite a handsome fellow!!

What a good idea! Kitty gets a new bed and scraps stay out of the landfill. Good job!

Is that cute, or what!?

This is so cute and a great idea for scraps!!

Thank you all for the sweet compliments on both my kitty and his new pillow. He is sitting in it right now as I type away. :)

I was pretty surprised myself. When I reupholstered my favorite chair, I used the leftover foam and fabric to make him a miniature version of my my chair, and he refused to sit in it. I think it helps that I put it in his favorite perch and because I quilted it. He really likes sitting on my quilts, especially when I'm still working on them, lol.

My Boo is the same way. He was actually diagnosed with an attachment disorder, and has to be within 3 feet of me at all times or he starts crying. My neighbors tell me they always know when I'm not home because of his crying!

That's every single cat I've ever had lol :D

Booberry looks very content.

Reminds me of my long, long ago cat who just knew a quilt in a frame was really his hammock.

Great use of scraps! There is just something about fabric and cats. Seems they go together always!

Cute kitty and nice idea.

I always struggle to find a use for the scraps and your idea was a fantastic one.

OH how cute your kitty is and what a nice pillow you made for him.

that's making good use off your materials and Kitty looks very happy
