Pretty pillow.

The next step in the caravan prep is the really fun part, the sewing part. I need to sew up pillow cases and fitted sheets and doona covers for the four beds and some curtains to cover all the windows and then one for each bunk bed for privacy.

I made a start yesterday with a pillow case for Miss Jazzy.

First I measured up a pillow case that I already have.

Then I made a pillow case from these measurements from scrap fabric.

Then I ripped up the scrap pillow case into bits and measured these bits adding seam allowances.

Then Miss Jazzy chose some fabrics and I followed the measurements and made her a pretty pillow case.

Then I crocheted a trim around the edge using this tutorial. Too easy.

I've popped the deets on Ravelry here.

Miss Jazzy slept on her new pretty pillow case last night and this morning claimed she had the best night's sleep EVER!!

Since then there have been little piles of fabric appearing all over the place. The one above was put together by Miss Pepper.

I'd better go and get to work, she's a tough task master that one.

Have a great day y'all.
