Pillow cases

I've been on another pillow case making binge. I made a bunch a few years back for Gabby, her friends, and her cousins. I did Christmas ones for all the cousins that year and Cinderella ones for Gabby and her friends. Now I'm making McQueen and Thomas, too. And I have made some princess ones for Gabby and her friends again. The last two I have made I have used as gift bags for her friends' birthday presents. I really dislike the expense and waste of wrapping paper.

Here is a good description on how to make them. As you can tell, I don't usually do the smaller accent. I have but I usually skip it. There are other directions out there - just Google it.

I can whip one up in about 30 minutes now that I've done it a few times. And it's one of those projects that making more doesn't take too much more time. It's a good assembly line project. And because they are quick they give me a little sewing fix without leaving another unfinished project lying around.

Way cool! I wish I had time to do some! I'm going to bookmark it and maybe get to it someday.

I hope you are doing well and have found a good group of women to hang out with. I miss you!
