Earlier I posted a Warm Wishes quilt for my grandson's 11th birthday. These are the sheets and pillowcases made to match. The gray sheet and pillowcase was store bought with left over fabric added. The other case is made from fabrics from the quilt. I still have a few odd size blocks left--I think for Christmas I will make a big throw pillow for his bed. I can't stand to waste fabric.

Beautiful! I like to do things like that, also. It's fun to do it for someone else.

This looks really good. I always make at least one pillowcase for every quilt I make. That way if I ever need to mend the quilt, I have available fabric and it's a great way to store your quilt in its matching pillowcase. That way you don't have to dump out quilts to find the one you want and it's easy to spot on the shelf.
