His and Her Pillows

Last night my goal was to make a pair of pillowcases for my boyfriend and myself, and I completed that goal.  I used Joel Dewberry's pattern from his book Sewn Spaces.  That pattern seemed to be missing parts and kind of vague, but I managed to make them.  I added a hem at the end, where the directions didn't call for one.  My favorite part was making the piping, I had never done that before.  I think the pattern is meant to make king size pillowcaese, but the pattern does not state.  They still look good on my standard pillows.

When I got these fabric prints in the mail, I knew I had to make something I use everyday!
The top pillow is Anna Maria Horner Lou Lou Thi Fabric and the bottom pillo is Amy Butler from her Daisy Chain collection.  And the border is Lizzy House Pearl Bracelets in brown.
Thanks for looking!
Amanda
