Yesterday during the wee boy’s nap, I put together a little project I’d been thinking about– a new pillowcase for him!

I used scraps from previous projects, construction fabric, one striped, two solids. I decided on a pretty traditional-looking patchwork design, but I cut the pieces more rectangular than square.

I haven’t done quilting before, and I was really more interested in making a cute, fast project than following directions for once, so I totally winged this one.

After his nap, he laid right down on it and hugged it. Success!
