Easiest Pillow Cover how-to

Mine (insert was an old pillow I had laying around, $3.50)


Pillow covers are easy to make and solve so many problems in my life. When I am bored of a room, changing the pillows puts my soul to rest.


PB Essential Cozy Pillow Cover
Pottery Barn (insert not included, $25)
If you can sew a straight [ish] line, you can sew a pillow cover. Pottery Barn charges $25 for a 18" pillow cover, but you can make one for the cost of about half a yard of fabric.













Click "read more" to see the full directions.











Basic directions:


  • Measure the pillow you want to cover and add about an inch for seam allowances. 




  • Cut one square for the front




  • Cut two pieces for the back. These pieces will overlap like a pillow sham, so divide the total in half and add a couple of inches (4" or so).




  • Finish a long edge on each back piece by turning it under and sewing.

  • Lay the two back pieces, overlapping, to cover the front piece. Right sides together.




  • Pin and sew 1/2" seam all the way around. 




  • Turn right side out and insert pillow.


Goodbye bold, hello neutral paradise
