I made one like yours, but I didn't have enough fabric to make it fold under. So what I did was I had just a little so that I could make a small hem like the pillow case. My peave is that I don't think that it is tight enought. I feel like I should take it in a little more because it seemed to be a little baggy. Should it be like that? It is easy to put in the sleeve and take it out but looks baggy looking. I guess when I put my things it there it won't bother me as much.
