I’m PJ, the creator of Pilly!

When I was a kid, before I can even remember, I had a beloved plain white travel pillow that I lovingly called Pilly. Even though he was a faceless, characterless plush, I took Pilly everywhere. My parents didn’t love this… except for one thing: the pillow had a removable pillowcase, which made it easy to wash. Unlike teddy bears or other stuffed animals, Pilly was simple to clean, making it easy to keep fresh and free from germs.

Now that I’m older, I’m on a mission to design the very best version of Pilly, this time as a lovable friend for kids and for older kids at heart. I spent nearly a year refining Pilly’s design to make him friendly-looking, super cuddly (stuffed with soft filling, but not too inflated), and easy to wash, with a safe envelope-style opening suitable for all ages.

I hope you enjoy Pilly!
