Posted - Aug 25 2016 : 07:09:34 AM Nancy, I did a blog post on the Hot dog pillow method and included a video that a colleague, Randa, did. No need for a serger, French seams all the way! You can view it here:

I use the following yardage:
3/4 for the pillow body 1/4 to 1/3 for the ends (1/4 yard words great) 1" for the trim (optional)
It makes a nice long pillow case. I like it when I don't see the pillow!
Be careful .... they are addictive!
