The boxes of Novelty fabrics are overflowing. As I tried to straighten them I decided some of the yardage pieces would make good pillowcases for the 1 Million Pillowcase Challenge. Those who have held marathon pillowcase sewing sessions, which sewing method do you prefer? The "burrito" method on the American Patchwork and Quilting site looks interesting and fast. Any tips from those who have sewn pillowcases? I plan to cut the fabric to size then invite friends over for an all day sewing session. Using the serger would be faster but I haven't used it in so long that it would take a day just to remember how to thread it.
I don't see any warnings about using fabric softeners or starch. I always use fragrance free products but do use a softener sheet and Best Press if the fabric is stubbornly wrinkled. Some of my fabrics are more masculine designs. Hope that is OK I assume the pillowcases are going to cancer patients in general and not just to women.
No, I won't send you any of the overflow fabrics. Not even the little pieces. One never knows when she will need that unusual print.
