Making Flowered Pillowcases

One of the things that I love to do is to decorate my home with handmade things, especially quilted or sewn items.  I have some sort of quilted piece in every room of the house!

I have to say that I sorely miss Joann Fabrics in my town.  At just eight minutes from my house, Joann's was always a place to go for a little bit of inspiration.  Sometimes I just want to buy fabrics for making crafts or simple items with and now we really don't have much to choose from around here.  :(

So I drove to Hobby Lobby to see what their fabric selection was like.  An honestly, it wasn't too bad.  They don't have all of the extras like Joann's did, but I found a pretty flowered fabric that I thought would brighten up my room.  I had picked up some larger pillows and wanted to make some pillowcases to fit them.

I love the colors and how they bring out the corals that are already there.  So then I went back and bought four more yards of the fabric.  I'm not sure yet what I'm going to make with it, but it was just so pretty that I couldn't refuse.  LOL

I like the look.  I think it may need some sort of a flowered quilt to match.  What do you think?
