I love that they are coordinating, but not all matchy-matchy - His & Hers pillowcases for my Mom & Dad :)
It feels a bit silly and little-kidish to give my parents handmade pillowcases, but I wanted something I could finish quickly, instead of adding to my WIP list. And I know my parents will appreciate them.
The fabrics are all DS for Joann's. Two different colorways of the same plaid, {I Love Plaid!} and the same grey dot for each. My Mom loves pink & grey together, so naturally I thought of her the first time I saw this fabric. The yellow plaid kind of looks to me like someone went crazy with a highlighter :)
And can I just say how tickled I am that what was just a pile of fabric in my stash yesterday is now two pillowcases, ready to be useful? Does anyone else get excited about that kind of thing?
*If you followed the link above and are wondering, I have used that tutorial to make pillowcases that I donated through an LQS :)
I won't be back to my blog until July. I'm unplugging myself for a few days, because I'm just plain exhausted & something has to give around here. So I'm cutting out my tv & computer time until I get a few important things taken care of & get better rested. I'll catch up with you all later, ok?

Great looking pillow cases, always nice to give handmade gifts.
Hope you're feeling better. See you when you return =D
What cute pillowcases! I agree - it's awfully satisfying to be able to use up all that yardage so quickly. Hooray for "doing no harm" to the WiP list! Hope your time away from the computer and TV is restful and productive!
love that you're "unplugging." i do it often! although i stick with my iphone, that's hard to give up. beautiful pillow cases, and yes, i very much love taking things from my stash and turning them into something useful. good for you!
These are too, too cute!!
Had a fantastic experience. The trader had tried to tell about the product with full description.They are applicable in providing each and every facility to their customers which they are needy for. In recent time, we all are aware about the rising demands of individuals regarding fashion and plaid is counted at much higher level in this list that is why we are finding huge variety of these product these days.
Your thhe best
