I made the "housewife" type pillowcase for them.

This is a site that gives instructions.
It's sort of like an envelope. The pillow doesn't fall out and it looks neater on a couch than a regular pillowcase.
For a little pillow, I cut the fabric 13 inches wide by about 36 inches long.

-- but I'm sure it's because I try to put too much of a pillow inside too little of a case :wink:

What about a tote bag? They don't take long to make. You don't have to make it fancy with snaps/zippers and such.
Here's a great tute that I used...
