Would you please tell me what is the size of the body of your pillow cases. They are very pretty.
I just went up and measured them they are 24" wide and 37" long. (on the pillows... lol But, I think I got the measurements right.) The open ends are completely covered by a deep hem so all of the raw edges are not exposed.

I hope this helps you. I just measured my pillows and added to that four inches to make sure they had enough room to go on and off easily and that the pillow length had plenty on room so the pillow ends draped well and was long enough.
Thanks so much for the info. I made a pair of pillowcases today. I made the body 34 " and the cuff 9" and then a 2 inch contrast (sorta like a piping). It came out very pretty.
I have 5 more pairs to make before Christmas. I really like the tutorial from Missouri Quilt Co, video. When I get all sets made I will submit a photo.
