White Wednesday...

Easy pillow cover...
I wanted a big white ruffled pillow, but of course could not find what I wanted, I already had a 26" pillow so I thought I would make a cover...


I love the simply shabby line at Target...


and I am always looking at there clearance, I found this ruffled window panel...


love the detail, and its a heavy fabric...


measured a inch bigger...


with the extra after cuting I put right sides together, overlaped the back pieces where the pillow slips in, the great thing was the edges are already hemmed...


super easy!!!
and I have leftover fabric for a small ruffled pillow.

I am joining Faded Charms White Wednesday

    Your pillow is just gorgeous! I never would have thought to make it out of the window panel! Sounds like I need to head over to Target! Or, "Tar-jay", as I like to call it:)

    Stefanie, How clever you are and such a beautiful pillow. Getting the panel on clearance is even better.
