Matching Pillow Cases


I had some Red Letter Day fabric and the scraps from the squares left from my unique quilt made on the Old Red Barn Quilt Along so I made matching pillow cases. One already flew back to Charleston with my daughter, but the other one and the quilt are here until we drive there for Thanksgiving.

Mary those are so nice and crisp. I struggle with pillowcases so I do not make them. You did a lovely job.

Wonderful I do like matching sets. Well done for persevering with the flying geese pattern. Oh my 46 blocks! Very large hiccup! It looks wonderful though. What about a pieced back with a flying geese border to use up the ones which went wront and a winter tree on a white background for the main backing fabric?

I'm sure I could figure it out, but if there is a tutorial for those pillowcases - would you mind sending it my way?

Great idea. And yours are so pretty along with the quilt.

I recently learned how to make the pillow cases that you sew up like a hotdog and turn right side out to finish all the seams. Is was so easy. I am looking forward to making many more.
Yours look beautiful. The colors are so pretty.
