I don't know if this is what she used, but there's stuff you can get to print on and then apply it to the fabric. Kind of like a decal, I think. Look around at JoAnn's or some such for it. I've seen it, but not paid close attention to it.

Hey, I'm just giving Linda an excuse to make new pillows for ya! Don't make me the baddie here.

I used an Avery transfer I got at Walmart to make my pillows. There are several companies that make similar transfer paper or transfer fabric if you want to sew onto a pillow. Not being the sewing type myself, I purchased some inexpensive cotton throw pillows. I opened one end and removed the stuffing so I had a flat surface to iron on the transfer. When done, I just re-stuffed the pillow and sewed up the end. As for washability, that depends on the ink in your printer - pigment is best. You can also make your own transfers using freezer paper - lots of details online. I wanted something related to the trailer but you can make a pillow featuring your grandkids, a favourite quote, a memorable place, pretty well anything you like. Super easy and unique.

Nothing fancy about these but this set up in the 17 creates a wonderful lounging area very intimate with the outside as you are right next to the windows. Place them together to watch media on computer placed on box between you.

NW Cat Owner, may I ask the size of your large pillows? Our trailer will be ready the end of January and I want to start making pillows. Thanks.

Pillowcases Happy Campers Cotton Linen Pillow Sofa Case Waist Throw Cushion Cover Home Decor Cojin Kussenhoes Housse de Coussin-in Cushion Cover from Home & Garden on AliExpress

In the link above is a great 18 x 18 inch pillow we use. It is only $3.60 Canadian, free shipping, no tax and is very well constructed with a hidden zipper. It reminds us of our great family times in our Boler years ago.

It comes in a plastic bag and without stuffing. To fill it I go to the local Walmart and buy the largest cheapest bed pillow which will usually fill two of these.

Also makes for a great donation to the door prizes at a fiberglass event.

I forget where I saw this pillow idea but I had a cover made at Zazzle with a photo of me and the pups in a canoe. I use it as extra storage and stuff it with flannel shirts, fleece vest, sweatshirt... Keeps my various layers a little more organized.

Your pillow photo is great, and that is a fantastic storage idea! I'm going to do that with an extra lightweight fleece zippered sleeping bag. So clever.
