Pillowcases for nephews

[annoxyer]

I watched the MSQC tutorial on how to make easy pillowcases and made my first two last night. Both pillowcases match the quilts I gifted to my nephews last Christmas. So fun and so quick! The only thing I wish I would have done differently is turned the doggy fabric so the doggies aren't going up and down. Other than that, they came out very professional!

Really good looking pillowcases and I know your nephew will love them as they match the quilts you made him. .
You were very observant to notice about the way the dogs were on your first try at making pillowcase. Sorry today it took me quite some time before I noticed that some fabrics need to be turned around before sewing on the band.

Very true! I gave my nephews their pillowcases and they absolutely LOVED them!

I will be sure to watch fabric placement next time!

LOL! My husband is holding up the pillow cases and to his right is Lord O'Reilly. We made him up for a Halloween decoration and just never took him down because everyone loved him so much!

Nice! I just made my first ones for Kensington's project, and it really suprised me too, how easy they were. Yours are so perfect for boys.
