Isn't this so cute? Add this fun shield pillow to a Halloeen costume of your little man who is a knight or dragon slayer! I could see adding some metallic buttons to be some spikes or creative embellishments! Enlarge the pattern for an even bigger pillow for your little knight to snuggle in! Would make a cute baby gift too! Thanks for sharing a creative idea!
