Minkee is a stretchy fabric. You might want to use a walking foot to prevent any stretching or do a basting stitch before attaching the binding. I tried sewing some small pillow for my friend who has to exist in a wheelchair. Parts of his wheelchair rub his skin raw. Well, I started out cutting the fabric into a square but the pillows look like I didn't know how to sew. Will watch this thread to see what opinions appear.
