I learned how to make a pillow with a case (I've not even tried a zipper yet!) :-)

Thank you. I was really easy but I have been sooo scared to even try this before.

It is so pretty, and looks great on the couch! Congratulations, I need to make some too.

Yolanda, it looks great! I never use zippers on pillows. I cut 2 pieces for the back, one wider than the other and stitch them with right sides facing the right side of the pillow. Then turn it inside out. You can insert the pillow form and doesn't show b/c one piece of the back is wider. It turns out great. If you want to use stuffing just stuff into a muslin form.
I love this method!!
Hope I explained it so you can understand :D

You did and that you! This is exactly what I did but I didn't use stuffing - I bought a pillow form. I am going on a quilted pillow case binge right after Christmas ;-)
