The two big ones are proper pillowcases for beds, but the small white one is a pillow/cushion cover and has really lovely lacey embroidery around the edge.
This false hexagon patchwork pillowcase is quite unusual, it looks modern to me, but it has no label inside so I have no idea where its from.
I really like the print in this hexagon...little lilac roses and polka dots.
This is the edging on the cushion cover, the flowers on this are really sweet too, and its in perfect condition.
This one is a bit more retro looking, but I really like the turquoise and purpley colours, and the ruffled edge too! Sadly I don't think I will be using the two pillowcases as pillowcases, I think they shall be cut up and added to the stash!! Its not that I don't like them as pillowcases, just that they really dont go with all my other bedding!
Did you want to know how much they cost for all three? Oh you did? Well they were 50p each! Bargain! When I paid the man in the shop made me laugh he said "sweet dreams" hehe! X
These are lovely! I also have great pillowcases from my local charity shop, which cost 50c each, or 75c for a pair! I bought loads to make some bunting, but have ended up using some of them as large cushion covers too (French pillows are usually square, so the cases work well on cushions).

Do you remember my pillowslip challenge from last summer?
ReplyDeleteIt's amazing how much can be made from one pillowslip.
The patchwork one is so cute.
