With holidays approaching, the kids have been sifting through decorations and asked about the Christmas Pillowcases<\/a> I made them two years ago…”Will you make some more of those again??”
\n\"\"
\nWho can turn down that easy request?
\nOf course! Let’s make pillowcases for Halloween and<\/i> Christmas!<\/p>\n

So we headed to the fabric shop and I let them pick out any print they loved (the kind of stuff that my minimalist design brain would probably walk past).\u00a0 But pillowcases and jammies are the best place to let the random fabrics run free.\u00a0 And free they went!, creating a halloween storm on my bed.
\n\"\"<\/a>
\nLucy and Owen with their favorite picks:
\n\"\"<\/a>
\nAnd a few of my picks:
\n\"\"<\/a>
\nAnd…..an updated tutorial on the original Pillowcase post<\/a> because Lucy and Owen were so brilliant to select fleece fabric for their pillowcases.\u00a0\u00a0 I never would have thought to use fleece on a pillow you actually sleep with (rather than a decor pillow<\/a> for the holidays<\/a>).\u00a0 But Owen LOVES soft textures, so I said sure.\u00a0 And then I quickly realized how easy they would be to sew since fleece typically comes 60 inches wide on the bolt and the edges don’t fray.\u00a0 Ding!
\n\"\"<\/a>
\nOf course if you want to make Halloween cases with traditional cotton, it’s easy to do as well (tutorial HERE<\/a>).\u00a0 I sewed one for Clara and, for the man of the house, per his request.\u00a0\u00a0 Plaid suits him well.
\n\"\"<\/a>
\n\"\"<\/a>
\nBut if you want the uber duber quick-sew way, here’s what you do:
\n\"\"<\/a>
\nIf you’d like to download and print the instructions, I have a 1-page PDF for you too!\u00a0 Click HERE<\/a> then print to standard 8.5 x 11 paper.<\/p>\n

I surprised the kids with their new pillowcases when they got home from school and they dove in, loving the cozy fleece.
\nThen it was round after round of “Timber!”
\n\"\"<\/a>
\nClara seemed to love her pillowcase as well….until I put it in the crib, and put her in there with it.\u00a0 She looked at it, scooped it, tossed it, and threw her precious blankie and paci out with it.
\nHmmm.
\nBaby steps to a new pillowcase for her.
\n\"\"<\/a>
\n\"\"<\/a>
\nAnd then I figured..if you’re making 4 cases, you should probably make 8 more??
\nI mean, naturally.
\n\"\"<\/a>
\nSo we made a few for our good friends and our cousins who go crazy for Halloween too.
\n\"\"<\/a>
\n\"\"<\/a>
\nAnd there you go!\u00a0 A simple Halloween project with some bite in it.
\nEnjoy!
