Refashion to make hot water bottle cover

Ever have any clothes you really don’t want to get rid of for sentimental reasons? My old fleecy PJs are a real comfort thing during the Winter but they’ve lost their snuggle factor after years of wear. I bought some cheap new ones last year but somehow the old ones refused to leave the house to free up space!!

I bought a small hot water bottle in Poundland and keep meaning to make a cover for it. When I was trying to declutter in the bedroom it struck me that I could use the old PJs to make a hot water bottle cover. I get to hold onto some meomories but the old PJs become useful again!

This is only my second project on the overlocker and it came close to disaster!! I used the ribbon tags from inside the PJ bottoms to make the fastening and I used the leg to make the cover.
