pillowcase and pillowcase dress w/ 3 different fabrics

[rachel66]

i saw at the quilt store they had a kit w/ the material and pattern on how to make those pillowcases that have the main part one fabric and then there was 2 different fabrics at the opening. does anyone have instructions on how to make those types of pillowcases.

also-i have seen lots of the pillowcase dresses w/ a border at the hem--is there any instructions on how to add that to the dress? i am assuming that you add the border just like this site says to do the trim on the arm holes--but i could be wrong.

Hi
Is this what you mean:
Pillow Case Instructions

Taniwa: Pillow case instructions

You can also buy (vintage) pillowcases that have embroidery on the edges, that would turn into the bottom of the dress

Good luck

I make and sell these dresses. Are you are talking about a contrasting border (hem)?

I have added pics, if you would like instructions on how to make them, then I will post my instructions.

That is beautiful! Wonderful job!

I just bought alot of different pillow cases at the thrift store to try my hand at one of these. I would love it if you would post your instructions.

I found a pair of vintage pillowcases with the southern belle girl crocheted at the bottom ($1.98 each, what a steal). I'm saving them until I've got a few other ones under my belt, lol.

Thank you so much for offering to post the instructions. It sure will make it easier than figuring it out myself, lol.
