Abstract

The pillow includes first and second substantially identical fabric outer layers which are secured together around the peripheries thereof. First, second and third fabric sections are positioned between the outer layers, wherein the first and third fabric sections are secured along one of their longitudinal edges, respectively, to the opposing longitudinal edges of the outer layers. The second fabric section is secured to the first fabric section along two lines of securement defining a first interior volume and also along two other lines of securement to the third fabric section defining a second interior volume. The lines of securement are spaced inwardly of the pillow from the longitudinal edges of the outer layers.

Claims (16)

1 . A pillow, comprising:

first and second substantially identical outer layers secured around the peripheries thereof;

first, second and third fabric sections, positioned between the first and second outer layers, wherein one longitudinal edge of the first and third fabric sections, respectively, are secured, respectively, to opposing longitudinal edges or longitudinal edge gussets of the first and second outer layers, wherein the second fabric section is secured to the first and third fabric sections, without contacting the outer layers, along spaced lines of securement, to define two interior volumes.

first and second substantially identical outer layers, secured around the peripheries thereof;

first and second overlapping fabric sections positioned interiorly of the pillow between the first and second outer layers, secured respectively, along one of their longitudinal edges to opposing longitudinal edges of the outer layers, and secured together along lines of securement which define at least one interior volume between the fabric sections, wherein the lines of securement are spaced apart from the longitudinal edges of the outer layers.

11 . The pillow of claim 10 , wherein the fabric sections terminate, respectively, at lines of securement.

12 . The pillow of claim 10 , wherein the interior volume is filled with feathers or polyester and the volumes between the outer layers and the fabric sections are filled with down.
