Then I'm doing a Barbie one for my 8yo DGD. I haven't tried the tube method but I do like that extra trim and the contrasting hem. I think I have the YouTube video and instructions saved somewhere!!
Yes, it was quick and easy but DDIL thought with the restless sleep the kids have the pillow inside might not hold so we'll have to put little snap-buttons on them....or ties....we will see, try it first.
I think the next ones I will try to make one side only, the front, like this tube pattern and the take more of the main material to make a longer back part and fit it into an inside pocket. I will give this a try too.
