I decided i wanted to use flannel since its cold right now.. and well my kiddo just 'wants' everything i make these days anyhow.. I used a soft butterfly flannel with a lil bit of glitter for the body and the same pink flannel for the ruffle ( wasnt pleased with it) and the cuff.. I used regular pink quilting cotton for the drawstring-I used leftover pink binding- worked like a charm.. I do suggest to use the turning tool to turn the 'string'.. and have a nice big safety pin or the thingamabob that will thread the sting thru the cuff of the pillowcase.. AND I surged my edges, cut a few corners..and i like the clean seams of serging.. I like the end result.. and I have one happy lil kiddo too !!

I stuffed two lap quilts and still had plenty of room..

More true to colors... Pic of Flannel Pillowcase and reg quilting cotton for drawstring..
I wanted a 'smooth' pull and didnt think flannel on flannel would allow the drawstring to pull easily..

Sulabug, I posted my pics in the discussion section. Please remove that post, if possible.
Everyone's pillowcases are cute. I like the idea of using flannel.

Here are mine.
I made mine from 5-pack fat quarter bundle from WM. I used 2 different fabrics for the front and back(forgot to take a pic of the back). I made the ruffle longer. If I did another case, I would make the drawstring longer. I had to join pieces and it came out a bit short.
Pics look a bit washed out. Camera battery must be low.

Thanks for the great February project.

I'm working diligently on mine. Didn't want to post picture until it was all done. Trying to decide what stitch I want to use on the applique so currently its hanging on my design wall until the light bulb in my head goes on. LOL :D:D

I tried! This is mine as you can see, I started altering, not a big ruffle fan. So that went, then I decided to use my pocket differently. I wanted it this way so I could put my iPhone in it why I napped or a tissue. I have king size pillows so I needed some extra length. I also, decided to do this in a girly color as sometimes I stand a better chance of umm, not loosing it shall we say. I am happy with the results, although not like the others. That is me in a nutshell.
