Sweet Dreams Pillow Case Challenge

Seems like I usually get some sewing in on Saturdays and so it was again this weekend.  And since I don't have much Christmas sewing planned, I decided to finish a project I started back in October.

Let's just call it my pillow project.  You see I sleep with about a dozen pillows (due to bad sinuses and such). Ok so not quite a dozen, but I decided I needed to spruce up my pillow collection with some nice new cases.  So, I got online and ordered this fabric that I thought would complement and update my decor.

It's called Amelia, by Me and My Sister for Moda, and Crazy for Dots by RJR.

I just love that fun paisley but I haven't cut into it yet. 

But here's what I came up with using the other three.

I looked at lots of tutorials and settled on this one.

I loved the cuff with a special trim and I got to learn something new to me called french seams.

It went together so fast and easy peasy (and the hidden seams are awesome!)

So, one more like this and then I'll decide what to do with that paisley!

And I know it's a bit late for a project that started at the beginning of this year,

but I'm thinking I just might join in on The 1 Million Pillow Case Challenge!

Have you heard of it?

Anyway, here's to a good night's sleep.
