In 2025 I made some pillowcases in anticipation of needing some 'big sister' and 'big brother' gifts for some older siblings of new babies that were due to be born during the year.
I do love these owls that have been in my stash for a while!
And this boat fabric has also been waiting to be used...
I make the pilllowcases by using the Roll It Up method, as shared by American Patchwork & Quilting on their website (for their One Million Pillowcases Challenge).
It involves French seams, and makes a nice big pillowcase.
First you layer the two fabrics, and roll up the main part so it is sitting inside the end-band.
Then you unroll the case and line up the side hems, to sew as a French seam.
The French seam helps prevent fraying as there are no exposed seams.
