I like that too. This is very pretty tho, and I love the different border you added and stitching. I have a king size bed and I buy some pre stamped cases to stitch some time. But of course those are standard size and dont fit the king pillows. So Ive been putting on contrasting king pillow cases first followed by the standard embroidered ones. It makes them look bordered and often makes the beautiful edgings stand out even better. <br /><br />But I like this idea too of adding another fabric to make a border.

They are not just for decoration purposes. Because of that I like the design on the edge of the pillowcase, keeping smooth cotton cloth where my head/face are. But I like your idea of embroidering the center , where the design is more visible, if they are going to be used for decoration purposes.GardenOfDaisieshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03110646840082802721noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-268529800904221520.post-39512585238301924642010-03-04T10:15:00.937-08:002010-03-04T10:15:00.937-08:00I love what you did with the border.
