Burrito pillow problem
Having issue with sewing the cuff on. It's shifting so cuff won't lay flat when I birth it. Had problems cutting the pieces. (Measured wrong TWO times) I wonder if fab is on the bias just a little. Do you thnk this could be the issue? Any way to solve it. It's my first attempt and I don't want the fab to win, if you know what I mean.

I've made pillow cases using this method, and have used fabric on bias for effect. This didn't skew on me. Maybe try a walking foot. You might have pulled the fabric as you sewed...likely to happen if body of case isn't rolled up tight. Do watch video as suggested, and try again 🙂.

Glad you solved your issue! Since there may be new people wondering what a burrito pillowcase is …….

Glad you solved your problem. My son-in-law loves to watch the ‘birthing’ so all seams enclosed.-lol He appreciates all my sewing or quilting. I think I made a pdf of my instructions how to embroider on the cuff before you make the pillowcase and end up with the embroidery positioned the right way after birthing. A friend told me she was glad I wrote how and she printed my instructions out bc she said she has ended up with her design upside down before.
