Pillow critters

Recycle old, unused sweaters by turning them into comfy cushions. Elke of By Elke turned her collection of 1970s wool sweaters into animal pillows, using wool felt applique for the details. “Everything is hand embroidered onto the pillows,” she says. “They are surely a labour of love because each one ends up taking me much longer then I expect.” But oh so lovely, Elke.
