I just finished up some quilted cafe curtains for the bedroom and I just made a pillowcase out of it with natural colored muslin. My one window faces west and that's a sunny window! I sewed on the three sides, turned it right side out and ironed it, and then tied it down with embroidery thread cut relatively close. Turned out sweet and I learned that from the mother who did a whole picture window valance in the Log Cabin pattern and actually used a plaid flannel for the backing. It looked nice from inside/outside! Good luck!!! Edie
