I make matching pillowcases for all of my quilts. I use the cases when using the quilt but also use the pillowcase to store the quilt if it is not being used. One quick glance and I know without shaking out the quilt what quilt is sitting on my shelf. It also means that I have matching fabric (suitably aged and worn) should my quilt ever need mending. Pillowcases also make wonderful gift bags and I use them all the time for large gifts or shower presents.
