    I buy bags at Marshall's or Penny's for $1.00 and use tissue paper in the bag. Very pretty and the bag can be used again.

    I have a friend who uses a strip of the quilt fabric, and makes a hemmed strip to wrap like ribbon. But matching pillow cases is a great idea.

    I love putting one in a pillowcase, make to match the quilt, and then tying it up. Gives a little hint of what's to come, and they get the big 'ta-da!' moment of opening it and finding the quilt.

    Both ideas are good. I have always just wrapped mine in regular Christmas paper but really like the idea of the case and the bow together!
