Project Pillowcase

Posted in Arts and Crafts
    In my last post I had mentioned wanting to make my own diaper covers as we are now using cloth diapers.  What I may not have mentioned is that I am not a seamstress.  I just got my first sewing machine.  I don't think I have touched one since high school.  In other words, I could use some practice before I jump right into sewing up diaper covers.

    I got a yard of Thomas the train fabric a couple of weeks ago and a free pattern to make a pillowcase.  I decided not to follow the directions and see what happened and I think it turned out alright.  Now if I could just learn to steer the thing I'd be good!  So here is Thomas the Tank Engine Pillow!
