Use the clothing of a loved one to create this wonderful memory pillow set, with or without a collar and photograph and poem. I take your provided shirt to create this memory shirt pillow.
This is a set of two pillows, both with insert. The main 18" pillow and a smaller one about 14" square. I have done a variety of items with the scraps, please check out the memory section to see more. I love customs, I am very open to other ideas.
The "love" is a raw edge applique. Your fabric is used in the applique and rest if fabric I provide.
Order the set or each pillow alone. If just the small choose "no closing" as none is required.
ORDER EARLY IF THIS IS EVENT SPECIFIC-- THIS ITEM WILL DEACTIVATE EARLY TO MEET HOLIDAY DEADLINES. IF YOU ARE READING THIS, I AM STILL TAKING ORDERS. I often deactivate when I receive a large request so that I don't disappoint anyone.
This is a wonderful memorial pillow, father's day gift, mother's day gift...
I take the shirt you provide and square it up, and embroider as shown in my smoke free home.
After you purchase the item, I will convo you with address to send me your clean shirts.
The large shirt usually fits an 18" square insert. But some sizes are smaller. So your pillow will come between 16 and 18" square. The smaller pillow is about 14" square, it has a zipper in the back.
I love making these Memory Pillows for many reasons -- it is something special, keeps the memory alive, and also the upcycling of a shirt is a way to keep the clothes of a missing loved one that are otherwise hard to part with.
Its a cute, fun, sentimental use for the old shirts, and is comforting for small children. It keeps our missing loved one in our lives.
Please feel free to convo prior to purchasing.
Please provide shirts clean to me.
Please provide in the notes section what the signature line of the poem should read-- (large pillow) "grandpa, dad" or other. The signature line font may vary.

Tell me about osnaburg
I love using osnaburg fabric. Its a natural heavily woven cotton. It has a nice texture that many compare to linen or burlap. Many of my designs are very dense, and it takes the stitches better than a flat fabric. Sometimes there is a random thread that doesn't take the color or bleach.Just like you'd see in linen or burlap. There aren't a lot of them, sometimes we won't see one in a project, other times you'll get one or two. They are super small, visualize a single thread woven in about an inch of the fabric. The fabric may also have a slub, this is not a snag, with a hole as if you snagged a sweater. Nature doesn't create cotton uniformly and most embrace the organic look. Neither are flaws.

If I could give more than 5 stars, I would. From start to finish any questions I had, she was very fast with response along with getting the item made and delivered back. I ordered these as gifts for my sister and mother and I can’t wait until they open them. Thank you Carol for making this possible! Hope you have a Merry Christmas.

I appreciate the kindness and sympathy shared when I stated that my loss was recent. I did not experience that with others when I asked a question which is why I used this shop
