"I'd not thought of using scollops for armholes or hems ... This would be a very pretty detail for any simple little dress. I can see them on a LBD and looking divine!"

"It would be great if there was a simple single page drawing of this pattern that would just give you the basic outline with measurements. It looks fairly simple to make so it would be simple if it just gave the basic parts with the neck armholes, then the width length measurements below the armholes."

This is a really good idea. Imagine how soft and cozy the shirts feel from frequent washing, too. I also like how the button down front of one shirt is integrated so that a pillow insert can be used and removed if the pillow case needs washing.

What a super Cool cushion/pillow this beauty is and it is made with strips of men's shirts. How neat is that and look at the button plackets taken from a button down shirt that you cut and sew on the pillow so you can use it to open and close the pillow for washing. I like the convience of buttons or zippers on pillows because you can take insert out and wash the covers but sometimes I do not want to sew them on so I just close the pillow. I love love the quilted look of the pillow. It makes it look unique. This may take a little more patience but the tutorial is easy to follow and well worth it. A great memory pillow to make too. And do not forget you are recycling too.
