Pillowcases for Avi and Nini






Some time ago my sister asked that I make pillowcases for my niece and nephew. She purchased the actual pillows and gave me an unused quilt for the fabric. I had purchased a great book Simple Sewing by Beth Baumgartel last month and it has been a huge help with techniques, especially neatly finishing seams and construction tips. I used the book to make the pillows - super easy to follow.
Here are the finished products. I figured I'd embellish the pillows with some hand-embroidery. I am pretty pleased!
