    Neat job! It looks real professional and really attractive. A quilt would look great made of this fabric.

    Did you have any special instructions? The covers I make seem to end up with the left hand end just not fitting quite right around all the layers underneath, or it shifts so that slowly, I don't have a cover on the front left edge. I've never been happy with my results, I could use a few pointers.

    Nice cover! Love the fabric too. I wonder if it would do well in an OBW? Lovely!

    I don't think it would...it's a smaller print and it repeats to much.
