I belong to two guilds and one of them, Orange Grove Quilters Guild, makes and donates pillowcases to charity. While at guild on Wednesday morning I picked up two pillowcase kits to make. Since I just got my new Juki this was a perfect little project to break in the new machine.
Isn’t the turquoise camouflage fabric perfect for a little boy?
As most of you probably know, I have a YouTube video on how I make pillowcases. You can click on it over there on the right sidebar. I learned a new little trick from my friend Aggie and I’ll share it with you when I make the second pillowcase and remember to take pictures.
Until then……….
Enjoy,
Beautiful pillowcase. I too am making pillowcases and donating them to a children's hospital. It is such a wonderful feeling to be able to give to others. Creative Stitching Bliss...
ReplyDeleteI made 150 pillowcases last year for our children't hospital and have made 50 so far this year. The goal is to make 200 by year end. I do have a question though and that is I use your method from you tube, but my seams end up extremely bulky in the bottom corners and right where the cuff and the body fabric meet. Do you have a trick to make those seams less bulky?
