Today I’m joining another amazing bloggers for our thrift store challenge. We’ve all shopped our local thrift store too created something amazing out of something one-time too neglected. The links to the residual of the projects volition last at the bottom of the post!

I went to the thrift store to conduct maintain a await around, too if you’ve been some Love Create Celebrate before, thus you’ll know that I’m drawn to all things monochrome. I looked at this $4 sweater too through, I could definitely exercise something alongside that! Loved the stripes, the colours, too the texture – perfect for a pillow. And I kid y'all not, it took less than xx minutes to brand the whole affair (including kid interruptions!).

- Fabric Scissors

How to Make Your DIY Lumbar Pillow:

If y'all don’t conduct maintain a sewing machine, y'all tin definitely exercise this whole projection past times paw sewing – the sewing car is only much faster! Start past times cutting off the top, sleeves too bottom of your sweater, thus that you’re only left alongside the body.

This collage shows the side past times side steps of the project, from top left, to bottom right.
Thread some coordinating string through your sewing machine. Turn the torso of your sweater within out thus that the seams are showing. Using your sewing machine, run upward a elementary right away trouble across the top. I recommend a seam allowance of at to the lowest degree 1/4″. I tried to trouble mine upward thus that I was sewing inwards the middle of the opened upward dark strips. If y'all seek to run upward unopen to a trouble too your sewing isn’t perfectly right away (especially on the dorsum side), it volition last really noticeable. Do the same affair on the other side leaving a 3 inch gap that y'all volition hand-sew later.
When the sewing is done, cutting whatever excess fabric, particularly inwards the corners, too plough the pillow right-side out. Stuff it total of cotton fiber batting too paw run upward the concluding few inches shut.

I dear it! My mother in law was staying alongside us this weekend too she didn’t believe me when I told her I made that pillow out of a sweater! It fits inwards thus perfectly. I couldn’t last happier alongside it.

Here are some pictures of it on the bench inwards my living room, where it volition in all probability alive for a footling acre since it blends thus nicely alongside the wintertime decor!
