3 Pillow Covers in 30 Min.

I finished it! Yep. All the major parts of the bedroom makeover are done. It feels so good! I am so glad I made that my goal this month. Give me the weekend to clean and add some finishing touches and Monday I promise some pictures.This was my last project...pillow covers. I wasn't sure if I would have time last night. I started working on them at 11:15. A few minor distractions later it was 11:45 and I was done! Follow my envelope pillow cover tutorial and let me know if you have questions.
This is the back. Can you see the edge I folded over to fit my pillow in? One reason it went so fast for me is I used the selvage edges of my fabric so I only had to sew two sides on each pillow. I just sewed down the sides after I had made the correct folds. It was a breeze. I'd love to hear what you think of my tutorial. Is it confusing?

  3. Great minds think alike! I guess it isn't as new as I thought. It seriously only takes 10-minutes. But for me that means cheating and using my selvage edges. That doesn't always work if you are doing a different pillow size though.
