Default Some pillows I made from a thrifted sheet and a fat quarter

I am a frugal sewer and often find things that the thrift store that I can use. I made 5 pillows from one twin thrifted sheet. Three are here.

Very attractive pillows. I really like your different patterns. I especially like the birds and the heart.

Really nicely done. I need some new fresh pillows for my front room. Hope you don't mind my "borrowing" some of your ideas. Especially like #2 and it will be easy to incorporate the rooms colors.
