Chevron Quilted Pillowcase


In case your not tired of the chevron trend just yet, take a peek at this pillowcase I pieced together last week for the living room. It's so cheerful in yellow!


Here is the tutorial I used at Bee Square Fabrics. Just cut out some squares, cut those squares in half and piece together. Easy peasy! I machine quilted around the edges of the yellow to give it extra definition and pom pom trim on the short sides to make it extra fun.


A bright striped fabric on the back for a little surprise.


And an opening to insert the pillow and remove for washing.

If you find a couple spare hours this weekend, you should totally make one too. Have a good one!

I am no where near tired of the whole chevron trend just yet. In fact I hope it isn't a trend, I think it is a great basic pattern. I love your pillow, the colors are so fun & happy and I like the colors on the back!!
