Very Beautiful! I am impressed!
I need to find an embroidery pattern for pillow cases. Or maybe I will keep it simple and just do tatting on them?

Thank you for the compliments...guess you ladies didn't notice the stitches that are already pulling loose...this is a problem I have as well as the backside being an absolute mess of tangles!!!
Alee - check out this site if you haven't already-
www.patternbee.com
There are freebees 
These pillow cases are not for the swap I am still thinking about what I am going to do for that. These are to go with a friends bedroom quilt and curtains...I promised them to her almost a year ago!

Maryann,
They are beautiful!!! What wonderful work you have done!!!
I have a collection of my grandmothers that I want to use to make a quilt because they are used & I thought this would be a great way to use them. I thought that using the crocheted edging along the top of the embrodiered piece would nicely frame them with sashing between each one.

Very nice!! I think you did a great job. No one sees the back on pillowcases, right? I think they are great!

| Maryann, They are lovely. I am planning to do a few pillowcases myself over the summer. I have made many before, but usually with my embroidery machine, not by hand. Great job! |

Mary Ann:
Your pillow cases are gorgeous! Thanks for sharing the address to the Pattern Bee web site. Now I'm more motivated to stitch than to work today. |

| Hello Mary Ann, Your pillowcases are some of the prettiest I've seen. I have made several sets through the years but haven't seen your beautiful pattern before. Can it be purchased somewhere? I would love to have it! Tracy |

I have had some luck finding plain pillowcase without a panel at dollar stores. I also got a McCall's pattern a few years back that I use over and over. I think I downloaded the tranfer for those pillowcase from one of the free pattern sites. If you do a google search for free pillocase embrodiery you should have quite a few pop up

It's really hard to find goo quality cases. I find mine at thrift stores because the older ones are far nicer.
Mary Ann, great job! Cindy
