Here's pics of my class samples, currently on display in the store.
Pillowcase 1
Choose a wide cuffed style like this Cotton & Steel pillowcase.
Fabrics:
Main/Cuff - Moonlit by Rashida Coleman Hale for Cotton & Steel / Trim - Cotton & Steel Basics 5001
Pillowcase 2
Or maybe you prefer a narrow cuff shown here on this Christmas style pillowcase.
Fabrics:
Main/Cuff/Trim - Winter Enchantment by Bee Sturgis for Quilting Treasures
Pillowcase 3
How about a soft flannel pillowcase for a child - don't you just love The Very Hungry Caterpillar fabric by Eric Carle under license to Andover Fabrics? I've fussy cut the cuff fabric so one side's blue and the other side's green - that fab wavy pattern is created Pattern 5823 by Kim Schaefer for Andover Fabrics.
Which one would you choose?
