I have decided to do something that I would of loved to have when Nellie passed away. But what is so so special about this, is that one can get this “Mourning” pillow whenever post passing of a loved animal! This pillow is super soft and can be personalized!
My first prototype of my “Mourning Pillows” I have a lot of work to do but I am super excited about this! Customer has the option to put ashes in pillow or in extra secret pocket so you can look at the ashes when you would like! These are Nellies ashes and I put an “N” on the corner of the pocket. and left her a little note in the pocket where I can place random notes through out my life thinking about her.
I picked out rainbow patterned fabric, felt that was fitting! and I used a teal color for the pocket! I love teal! My sewing machine is super fancy and can sew on letters! I was trying to figure out how to spell her name, Nellie. But I got too frustrated and decided just to go with the “N.”
I used stuffing and these little weighted beads to give some weight to the pillow! It is so much more fun to hold a stuffed animal that has some weight to it.
