Simple Pillow Cover

A few nights ago I had an itch to break out the sewing machine.

Tried to ignore it . . . But it didn't go away.

So instead of going to bed like a good little girl I started scrounging around in my bin of scrap fabric to see what I could come up with.

Here's the newest addition to my collection of pillow slipcovers.


The case itself is just a simple envelope style which are a snap to put together.  I have a tutorial, here, if your interested.


I am obsessed with hand crocheted trim of late.  

Recently I found a length of red trim at the thrift store and was so excited to finally use it on something.


I thought the buttons would be a nice touch too!

I think perhaps if I copy this pattern in the future I'll make the center section smaller.  But all in all I like the way it looks.



Late night sewing sessions are so much fun!

Now I'm itch'in to try a white on white version of this pillow with pretty mother of pearl buttons.  Wouldn't that be pretty?


Have a great day everyone,

Robin

  10. I love the red buttons you added and the red crochet ribbon is such a pretty touch. I like how the red in the pillow matches the curtains that are peeking in the back of your photo. Thanks for the visit!
