GUKUC?

Sharing is caring!

So the “Great Ugly Knit Upcycle Challenge” ended last Sunday. I knew I wanted to do something so I cut up a few old ill-fitting t-shirts. But there they sat, in a cluttery pile on my table, for days just taunting me “You’ll never think of something cool to do with us!” But I sure showed them!

Thing 1
Thing 2

They sacrificed themselves to become…
New beautiful throw pillow that matches my new(ish) duvet cover!
Look at those cool rolled up framing borderlines!
What’s that you say?  You like the butterfly pillow too?  More on that later, my pretties.

Just ignore the hideous Euro-shams because right now they are more Euro-trash than shams.  I am still in the very slow process of decorating my bedroom.

I am calling this the “Snowflake Method” (for obvious reasons.)  This is very similar to the way you make this.  Tutorial on this very soon!

  3. Wow! Who knew you could make some crappy old t-shirts look so good? I have two ugly old pillows we inherited that are a great shape but are in desperate need of a new look. Maybe I'll try this. I have a *huge* pile of my husband's old t's that I've been trying to decide how to use. Thanks for another great idea.
