Wendy H. showed April how to make these super cute pillowcases with hidden seams around the contrasting bands (see here for a good tutorial, although the dimensions were slightly different). Once she started making them, it almost became an addiction and we ended up with several fun presents for family and friends.
Space motif for a boy in our Primary who is undergoing chemotherapy treatments for leukemia;
we put together a care package and thought a pillowcase would be fun.
This was one of Erin's birthday presents. Owls, of course!
We made these for Carla S. who lets us ride her horses.
These are for some of Erin's friends.
Megan made this for her friend, Amelia, who likes dragons.
These are for the cousins, Scott and Dean.
We love the bright colors!
And, for our herp-loving friends: snake skin and lizard skin fabric.
Kevin got lizard skin pillowcases for his birthday, and April is kicking herself
for not buying the whole bolt of fabric--it's no longer available.
It's a good thing we always are behind on our blog posts or else the surprise would be ruined for those who might see this before Christmas.
