Dear readers,
After my khaki/black jeans fiasco - and since my sew-jo was back - I needed a quick fix. And, satisfied that itch by making roll-up pillowcases, a technique expounded by my friend (unfortunately a non-blogger) Francine.
Please ignore the fact - these are indeed Christmas themed (and it's the end of January); we're not going to worry about that right now:)
After perfecting the technique - the pillowcases took less than 15 minutes each (the first took 20 - the second 10 minutes (if that). I found this 7 minute You Tube video to be the best tutorial for my learning style:
Ridiculously easy with finished seams. So, much easier than the pillowcases I used with other tutorials. The Kerries do like them. I bought new pillows to show off the cases as well.
I got my quick fix and am now hungry for other quick fixes: Pencil cases, little Kindle cases - oh the anticipation.
I finally washed my quilt after four months, and I must admit I like the crinkled post-wash look much better.
What is your quick fix?
P.
