You are asking $15.00 each?

Seams reasonable - The body takes about 1-1/8 (depends on how one cuts it)
and it takes about 1/4 to 3/8 yard for the cuffs/trim/hems.

Nice.

I Love your pillow cases. They are very tastefully made and it sounds like the construction was perfect. Good luck on selling them out. I hope you do very well.

I learned that method this past summer. A lady at a quilt group I joined showed me how to make pillowcases using that method and I love it. No exposed seams. And it goes so fast.

Great looking pillow cases Karla! Good luck! Your price sounds fair although I've seen them sell for $25.00 a pair.

Great job. I made some pillowcases for Jim last Christmas. He loved them. It's fun surprising someone you love with something like this. Do you ever make them for family?
