This new fabric was designed as a climbing vine with meandering leaves that stretch up to the sunlight. The print features sketched leaves on a climbing vine and I just released it! May I introduce you to my newest pattern: Summer Vine.

It?s been a few years since I shared the steps I use to make pocket pillow covers (no zipper). Once you master this easy technique you can make new pillow covers for every season!

 
This method works for any square or rectangular pillow. I believe it?s better to sew the cover it a little loose the first time, you can always go back and tighten up corners and seams later.
You need a piece of fabric wide enough to wrap around your pillow insert with a few extra inches to overlap on the back and form the pocket opening. For example, if your pillow insert is 20?, you?ll want to cut a piece of fabric that measures approximately 48? wide (sides 3 and 4).  Those extra eight inches allow for fullness and to wrap around the pillow to form the overlapping pocket.
