Hey guys  I assumed this should go in the Creative Corner because it's all crafty and stuff, but anyways...I recently (as in today) took up the hobby of making pillows. I'm starting out just using felt rectangles, sewing them, stuffing them, then using fabric markers to make designs, but I think it's really fun (I don't care that they're not comfortable because I only want to use them for decoration). I'll try to post pictures later, but I just wanted to know if any of you guys make pillows...or have an interest in making pillows...or maybe want to help me figure out what to put on my pillows because I'm bad at coming up with ideas. So far I have a Pokemon-themed one, an owl one, and one with a golden snitch on it. |

sounds cool ^_^ i made a pillow for my home economics class in 3rd year... (9th grade). well actually it was more like a pillowcase and we put a pillow in it. but still. it was a nice pillow... i wonder where it went.... oh well.
keeping with the harry potter theme you could make one for each house, like do each half one of the house colors and put the animal or the crest or whatever on top.

Then 'you' can have a pikachu pillow too! |

These sound cool , I would totally go for some more Harry Potter. Maybe one that has a red (or any coloured) background and some pale skin coloured face with hair on the bottom (like his head is popping up) with his circular glasses and scar.
I'd love to have a potter pillow XD

Have you ever heard of making pillows out of t-shirts? It's pretty easy, and you don't need to pay for materials if you're using a shirt you already have. I made one for my friend for her birthday and it came out pretty well.

I've always wanted to make pillows ever since I learned about Throwboy. Is it an expensive hobby? Are there any kits? |
