So gorgeous!! I'm not going to ask you how you did it like your other lovely readers. I am self-aware enough to know it would do me no good to have the instructions, because I'd never do it myself. :)
this has been keeping me up at night. Not entirely, but it has been on my mind and I've been looking and looking and thinking about how to do that. PLEASE share. I'm going nuts!
Well, first of all, I saw B's comment. Looks like we'll just have to move things to a threesome! YOU ROCK!!! It's beautiful. LOVE the colors. Love Love Love!!! I think we need a CrochetPillowcaseAlong!!!
yes please! I have been aching to make some since I saw your earlier post. I have lots of questions... how to get the holes in the pillows, what kind of crochet stitch (I barely know how to crochet) etc etc. Please help!
Hey! I just found your blog while googling "colored pencil roll tutorial", and am I *so glad* I did! I can't believe I didn't find you sooner! I just made a pencil roll with 13 pockets and used your no-snit binding method. Finally something with a binding--that isn't hand-sewn--that I can be satisfied with. Thanks for your tutorials...you're going in my bloglines!
looks like it's the same basic shell, but instead of 5 dc, it's 2 dc, ch 3 (maybe 2) then 2 dc.
Or maybe it's a 2 dc cluster stitch then the chain and another cluster stitch.
It looks lovely. Any lady, young or old, would appreciate a beautiful pillow case trimmed with this. If you ever decide to do a tutorial with your instructions, I will be first to make some. I will be watching. Keep up the wonderful work.
I love this design.
The decorative design looks to me like a round of V-stitches and then a round of picot stitches. If you search "Lacy Vs and Picots Edging" you can find something similar to this.
I did something similar a few years ago on throw pillows I made to match my new homemade slipcovers. First, I marked the edge off in 1/2" increments all the way around and then I poked holes every 1/2" with a KNITTING NEEDLE!!! Not sure what size it was but it was kind of big. I wanted to use a crochet hook to do the edging so it had to be BIG. The pillow covers were heavier fabric than pillow cases but I am sure it will work. Think I will try this in the spring when I make more bed pillowcases.
congrats! it looks great. i'm very proud of you, but can you now share with us in blogland how you did that?!?!
