Memory Pillows

These are 18 inch pillow covers I made for my two nieces that just lost their dad last month, April 27th. They are made from their dad’s shirts. I used Jenny’s Rhombus Gemstones idea, using the smaller Rhombus ruler. I had the dark tan for sashing but cut them 1 1/4 inch. The front of the shirts I used for the opposite sides of the covers, letting the snap front be the opening, for the pillow inserts. I plan to give them to the girls, along with the memory quilt I made their mom for Fathers Day. (It is posted here too) I hope to give them a little joy, on their first Fathers Day, without their dad.
