I want to make some of those pillows for kids that have 4-5 regular pillows in them. I need to figure out how they are closed in order to wash the material. Don't remember where I saw this. I know you need 3 yds. of material.

Thanks,
Linda

I want to make one of these also. I've sort of figured it out somewhat. You take a pre-lit Christmas tree and move aside the branches to fit in a large, stuffed with polyfit fabric and wrap around the tree. Awesome. Take care, Linda

Linda,
Are you talking about a body pillow? You don't have to put several pillows together since they sell them as one long pillow. Kids love them for watching tv and fleece covers are soft and squishy.

Evelyn, no it is 4 or 5 pillows and you use 3 yards of material. They can kinda be folded up to store. Don't know where I saw this, probably on pinterest somewhere and forgot to pin it. Thanks,

HUGS,
LINDA
