Made this Monday: Granny Square Sweater ReDesign

So I bought this sweater a few weeks at a thrift store, I thought it may look cute as an actual sweater, but I also had other plans for this baby, and I think I was right to envision a new life for it, as it's not the most flattering thing I've ever put on...



I've been wanting a small granny-square throw pillow for the chair at my crafts table, but was having a hard time finding one in colors I liked and wasn't too pricey.  My solution?  Make my granny square sweater into a pillow cover!  

I simply folded the sweater over a small pillow form, hand-sewed the back closure and sides and presto - pillow!
