Making quilts with bedding as backing eliminates the hassle of dealing with seams. But what about pillowcases? Well, they can be transformed into yet another beautiful quilt! I recently embarked on a project where I dedicated a day to sorting through my pillowcase collection using my trusty scrap management system. The goal? To chop them into usable pieces for quilting. I have a penchant for square-in-a-square designs—they're not only aesthetically pleasing but also quick and easy to execute. With a bit of organization, you don't need much space to work wonders with them. I've documented my process in a video, showcasing how these seemingly ordinary pillowcases can be repurposed into something extraordinary. Interestingly, as I surveyed my finished quilts, I couldn't help but notice a recurring theme—blue dominates the color palette! It's not entirely surprising, considering it's the predominant hue in my scrap collection. So, expect to see more blue-themed creations in the pipeline!
