Austin T-Shirt Baby Pillows

Todd & I are expecting a baby- we're due Christmas day! So we've started getting the nursery ready. Our house is tiny so the nursery is also the guest room and my sometimes home office when it's too hot/ cold to work in the converted vintage trailer we have in the yard.

We decided on an Austin theme room with groovy guitar fabric and various Austin references. I made these easy slipcover pillows for decor in the crib using Austin t=shirts as the front and coordinating fabric to the roman blinds I made for the back & trim.

Here are the instructions I followed to make these cushions:

I highly recommend this pattern since it's easy to follow and has no zipper/ buttons etc required. The covers are also easy to remove for cleaning. Here are a couple of photos of the front & back:
