    Thanks for the kind words about my pillow cover. I really don't have a real pattern for it. It fits a 18"pillow but you can make them any size. This is made with 4 main pieces..two 22" x 18 1/2 folded to be 11 x18 1/2, front of fabric facing out, this is the back. The front is a piece cut 18 1/2" x 14 1/2" and another contrasting piece cut 4 1/2" x 18 1/2". I put in prairieoints...as big or small as you like and as many as you like (I like mine on the small side so more of the main fabric shows!). I sew the points to the larger top piece with a 1/8" seam, then sew the 4 1/2" piece to that. Should be 18 1/2" square now. Put that face up on your table place the two back pieces on that with the folds in the center. Sticth all around and now you have a envelope. Turn right side out push corners out and insert pillow. Hope this makes sense..easier to do than say. Carol

    P.s. If you put buttons on the prarie points do it before you sew the front and back together...much easier.
