I did make some pillow cases out of a heavyweight Polyester Satin that held up well for my grandsons. They loved them.
I made French seams that covered the exposed edges.
Satins do come in various fibers, weights, and qualities. Generally, they are notorious for fraying.
Check for washability and if the fabric can tolerate heat. I would avoid using a flimsy, lightweight, wrinkle prone satin.
