    I love your pillowcases and the detail work is beautiful. Would cost you a fortune in the stores to purchase cases this nice. I purchased some fabric from ebay and it turned out to be polyester sheeting, not cotton. I cannot use in my quilts sooo....., I am going to make pillow cases. Hope they turn out as well as yours!

    Those are nice. Love the decorative stitch, which, adds class to the pillow cases.

    I do the same for my bath room. I buy an extra shower curtains to make my window curtain and add borders to my towels. Whats left I put in a picture frame to hang on the bathroom wall. On two of them I layed fabric out on the back board of the picture frame and added artifical flower to it. The picture frames are twenty cent frames from a yard or the thrift store.
