Placemat pillows

Hi and welcome to my new followers. Sorry I'm late with this week's Tried It out Thursday. Sometimes life just gets in the way. 

I was browsing in Tuesday Morning a few weeks ago and found the perfect placemats for making pillows. Just the color I want to use on my back porch and one has butterflies too.

Even better is the fact that one has a pattern on both sides and one has a solid back so I have reversible pillows for more options.

These are so easy to make. Use placemats that have two layers of materials.

Pick one end, or part of it, open with a seam ripper and fill with fiberfill or quilt batting. Sew the end closed again.

I love easy projects like this that allow me instant gratification and satisfaction over completing something- and saving money too. The mats were only a couple of dollars each.
