I love making them. They're quick and easy and so appreciated. Children I've given them to just love the colors and novelty prints. I'm now starting to make them so they match the quilts I'm making (duh). Lots of fun, especially if you use the "seamless" version. It's not really seamless but looks really nice.

What a great idea!

I love making them, they are so easy and look so great. My grandchildren are getting them for Christmas this year, along with their savings bonds.

So far have made almost 100 for the BH&G million pillowcase challenge. Trust me, I couldn't afford to buy all the fabric. Several friends and relatives were generous and helped out with their fabrics a lot! This allowed some wonderful borders!

Pillowcases are an easy "break" from quilting. Guess I sometimes need the change of a short project.
