SouthernStitch said... My sister has requested pillows just like these for a Christmas present. How do you join the pillows at the buttons? Could you possibly describe that part? Bang em together -- oh just sort of smoosh them without the bottom part, gotcha. 12/5/05 3:14 PM

Tailypo said... Hi Mary -- Let me clarify. You make two pillows. Then you make two covered buttons, following the instructions on the package. Then, you put one of the buttons on a length of button twine, or a quadrupled thread, on an apholstery needle. Stitch through pillow #1 in the middle, then stitch through pillow #2 in the middle. Then take your second button and tie it in the middle of pillow #2, tight enough that the pillows will dimple a bit in the middle. Does that make sense? 12/5/05 3:28 PM
