Pillowcases

Creating pillowcases has been the rage for a while.  I have just never created a pillowcase because I thought that there were enough pillowcases around from when people purchase sheet sets.  We had a lot of pillowcases around for a while and then I took them to the men's rescue mission.

But, I had a pillow that was extra long and the pillowcase on it was threadbare.  Instead of trying to shop for a pillowcase that would fit the special sized pillow, I decided to just create my own pillowcase.

 

 

While I was creating my pillowcase, Keegan, the 3 1/2 year old, came to see what I was doing.  He told me he wanted his own pillowcases out of his fabric.  The fabric is Little Golden Books fabric. 

I didn't want to leave Dillon out so I made him a set of pillowcases too.  They have a green zinger.  Keegan's pillowcases have a red zinger.  They have to be able to tell their stuff apart.

 

 

Washoe Quilt Shop in Washoe, MT is going out of business so they were having an inventory reduction sale.  I purchased quite a bit of fabric.  This yellow Little Golden Books fabric was carried around by Keegan for a while in the store.  He told me it was his fabric.  It did work out well that I made him pillowcases soon after we purchased the fabric out of "his" fabric.
