Wof
I swear sometimes I just don't know about myself. I know that WOF means width of fabric. I am trying to make a pillowcase using the 20 minute/hot dog method. I am sure that all of you could make pillowcases in your sleep. I've found left over fabric that I want to use. If I put the selvage at the top there is a fold at the bottom. Is the part from one selvage (folded) to the other considered WOF? I'm sorry for being such a dummy but I don't want to mess up this fabric by cutting it wrong.

I hope you don't get discouraged if it takes more than 20 minutes to make your pillowcase, because I have made a few of those, and perhaps could put it together in 20 minutes if everything else was cut out and in order, machine threaded and set up, and test stitching completed. Start to finish, just relax and enjoy the process.
Another way to think of cutting width of fabric is to think of it as across the grain. You are no dummy. You are smart enough to ask for clarification.
