Still have to bind a quilt for my son before the big day, but I am getting there.
I know this sounds corny but I have no idea how to make these beautiful cases. Wish someone was closeby to show me how. I would be every so grateful since my pillowcase supply looks a little tattered and torn. You did a beautiful job on them.
I used the tutorial by the Missouri Star Quilt Company. This was the first time I made pillow cases and it was incredibly easy. I just watched the tutorial, and then ran it again, pausing so I could keep up. Try it - you can do it too.
