Pillowcases – Updated Instructions

Simple pillowcases

If you’ve taken one of my beginner classes, you’ve probably made one of these pillowcases! I use this pattern for all ages because it’s a great opportunity to practice stitching straight lines. It also makes a great gift.

I’ve updated the instructions for the pillowcases. You can find it here.

The instructions include a tip on cutting your fabric strips for your pillowcase. You’ll find it even easier with a rotary cutter, a ruler, and a self-healing mat!
