    I also had never seen or heard of a quilt made with embroidered pillowcases. I have several pairs - ones done by the lady I am named for and some done by me when I was a teenager. They are tucked away in a cedar chest because I could not think of actually using them as pillowcases. This is a great idea - thank you so much for sharing your quilt and for the inspiration!

    Your quilt is beautiful! My late mom embroidered lots of pillow cases, many with hand crocheted lacy edges. But, alas, all of them have been well used so I don't have any to put into a quilt.

    You did a lovely job. What a good idea to use the pillow cases for a quilt.
