I'm guessing you are making these for king size pillows. Jenny from Missouri Star on Youtube measures the main body at 27inches, the cuff at 9 inches with a 2 1/2 inch flange. My problem is finding fabric at 45 inches wide...much of it is now about 42 inches and taking off the selvedge makes it even less. Tough to get "fat" pillows to fit.
Anyway, those grands will think these are the best ever and they'll get tons of use. :-)
No--regular pillows. I didn't use wof because it wasn't long enough. Plus I had to go the other direction for the body. I didn't dare try wof if it's 42 or under.
