    Made a ton of the MissouriQuilt one last year out of flannel for Christmas presents. I "wrapped" a quilt in one. SEW EASY!!!!

    I' have made tow dozen & sent them to tornado victims in Miss. & Alabama. The recipients can use them to carry stuff in, or stuff clothes into them to make a pillow. Pillow cases are very useful.

    Go to Missouri Star Quilting for a tutorial on the pillowcases.

    if you google or bing hotdog pillowcase pattern
    It will give you several sites for this fun method of making pillowcases.
    We make up kits at the shop and sell them.... I just LOVE picking out 3 fabrics for these pillowcase kits.

    I was going to suggest the All People Quilt website, but someone already did. But I have found that in just about every quilt magazine there seems to be a pattern for a pillowcase. They are easy and fun to make.

    Go to any of the sites that have charity profects listed and you will see the different layouts they do and the dimensions they used for pillow case projects for kids undergoing cancer treatment.

    My grandaughter and I made several using Twiddletail`s tutorial. Don`t be afraid of the french seam, it`s just a matter of sewing it together with right sides out first and then turning it and encasing the seam with one straight line of stitches. Easy peasy and makes a HUGE difference in the quality of the final product. No raveling edges every time it`s washed. http://twiddletails.blogspot.com/201...llowcases.html
