Easy Pillowcase with French Seams


I was up at Fiddlesticks today, one of my favorite shops, and picked up a kit for a Valentine pillow. It had directions for the roll tube, something I haven't done before. So I brought it home, thinking this is going to be a snap, the pieces are already cut and it should sew together in just a few minutes. Well.......20 minutes later i'm still looking at the instructions trying to figure them out. The instructions say things like: "fold the fabric in half" well, which way? So after a while, I did figure it out, and it did sew together pretty quickly. I hope Dahlia loves it when she gets home. So really this should be titled:
Easy (if you know what you're doing) Pillowcase with French Seams

Actually, she didn't. I believe what she said was, "there isn't a princess on it - I don't want that". Wow. I was completely blown away, but thankfully Marcus said he wanted it for a valentine from me. So he has it, and as soon as he took it and put it on his bed, she wanted it. Naturally.
