before & after :: poncho to pillows

I've been looking for the perfect fabric to recover some pillows I have around the house but all the fabrics I came across were just wrong.  good fabrics are too expensive.  (and I'm not good enough at sewing to risk messing up some fancy fabric) stylish pillows are (in my opinion) way over priced...so imagine my delight while in H&M the other day and I came across this gem.  it was exactly what I had in mind.  and only $24.95! I was able to make three (yes THREE!) pillows from the material and they are so soft and cozy.  and unique.  of course I may have to go back and by another poncho to keep and wear for myself...
