A quick present to make is a "Handle Pillow" You can use whatever fabric you want, or recycle a favorite shirt or dress. Cut 2 pieces 6x 8 inches and another piece of fabric 3 x 6 inches, this will be the handle. Take the handle fabric and fold in half, ironing it, then open up this piece and fold the raw edges toward the center to the ironed line. Iron this in place. Stitch on each side of the handle to form a solid piece.

This Handle Pillow is a good idea for a child in a carseat.
Years ago, I made similar pillows for taking to the
stadium for watching ball games. I called them
"Fanny Pillows", and believe me, they sure made sitting
on stadium benches a lot easier. I sewed a strap on the
pillow long enough to sling over my shoulder, so that
Everyone who saw ours wanted one for themselves, so I ended
up making quite a few.
Um, a picture would be nice? Please?

Readers like myself would love to see your pillows. Post a photo won't you? Thanks!

What a great idea. I will have to try my hand at this, (I am not much of a sewer, but may be able to do this). Thanks for sharing.
