AWESOME
IDEA From DesignSponge.com For an Easy Silk Pillow Case
here’s what you’ll need:
scarf
double-sided fusible interfacing
backing fabric (around 1 1/4 yards for an 18” pillow)
pillow insert
sewing machine
iron
thread
1. if your scarf is thin, (i.e. silk) fuse it to a piece of
fabric with double-sided fusible interfacing and an iron, to give it extra
strength before sewing.
2. for the envelope style backing, cut out two squares of
your backing fabric that are 1” longer than your pillow and wide enough so that
they will overlap by 2 to 3 inches after you’ve sewn a 1” hem along one side.
3. overlap the two pieces and pin together so they create a
square that is 1” larger than your pillow insert all the way around.
4. with right sides together, stitch the top scarf piece to
the envelope pillow backing all the way around using a 1/2” seam allowance.
5. turn right side out, press and insert your pillow.
