Pillowtalk!

I've been diligently working on pillowcases.  First I cut out all of the fabric, then sewed on the borders (hem edge) at the same time as I sewed on the little trims.  Once all of those were done, I sewed the side seams with a french seam and finally the bottom seam on the serger.   I did serge some of the side seams but decided I didn't care for that.  It went pretty quickly and the nice thing was that when I was finished I had a whole pile of pillowcases!  They make great gifts!  I will have to do some with Christmas fabrics. Check out the Pillowcase Photo Album for more pictures of these newest pillowcases.

Next project is a bunch of little pincushions. I want to embroidery some with names, some with initials and the rest with sewing notion embroideries on the top.  I'm going to try to sew a few round ones.  I have two choices on those.  First, I can get the embroidery done then sew the circles on my sewing machine with the new circular attachment I have. Secondly, I could digitize sewing the circle after the embroidery is finished.  I must remember to leave a place to turn the little devils right side out.  We'll see how that works out!  Wish me luck!!

Hope you're sewing today!
