Today I made matching pillowcases for the last of my new quilts.
I don't love the colors of the pillowcases for my Harvest quilt, but I didn't have enough of any of the fabrics to make a nicer set. One of the challenges of making a scrappy quilt, I guess.I am very happy about how this pair of pillowcases turned out; I luckily had some leftover pieces of border print. I'd still like to make another pair of green pillowcases for the Xmas quilt, then I'll be finished. These are the six pillowcases I finished today.
I'm linking up with the Needle & Thread Thursday (NTT). Drop by and see what everyone else is working on.
Good job. I tend to wait (way too long) to make pillow shams for the quilts for my bed. I really like your yellow, brown?, and orange cases. Not my usual favorite colors but for some reason these speak to me. Hope you have a quilty week.
ReplyDeleteIt was yellow with green and orange with burgundy. Thank you. I have lots of projects I'm hoping to work on this week.
DeleteNice job on the pillowcases. This reminds me that I have two sets of two that I have to get around to making!
ReplyDeleteI've figured out that if I wait, I'll never make them. I have to finish them right away.
DeleteVery pretty Pillowcases! I checked out the quilt they are going with and I really like the combo - I think you did well!
ReplyDeleteThank you. I'm looking forward to using the quilt in autumn.
DeleteOoooh I love that mustardy yellow pillowcase. Great combo.
ReplyDeleteThanks. They will at least look good with the quilt.
DeleteNice work on the pillowcases.
ReplyDeleteThank you. Thanks for visiting.
