...before I leave on a mini spring break holiday with my family this week, I thought I'd share this mosaic with you. I'm actually not entirely done photographing my new batch of pillowcases yet -- more pictures to take after I get back later this week! Anyhow, I do hope you have a good beginning to the week filled with warm thoughts of spring -- talk to you soon!
What a beautiful mosaic of you gorgeous work. Very very pretty.

Oh, I am in love with these crocheted edged pillow cases. I quilt, crochet and knit and I have never done this...it looks very addicting and I can't wait to start one. Thank you so much for sharing your information for a yougogirl to do a tutorial.

Please, please come back from spring break. We have all been playing with pillowcases while you are gone. :-)

Hi! I just learned about your blog today...what fun pillowcases!! I showed my mom and she said that they made them all the time growing up (in the 60's) In response to online shops, we have a LYS that is mostly geared for online yarn shoppers: Paradise Fibers http://www.paradisefibers.net/ When you drive up to them, they are in a wharehouse district, are a little hard to find and has a very wharehouse-y feel...BUT they have SO MUCH to look at!! Much more than all of our other LYS. Another one is A Grand Yarn http://agrandyarn.com/ but I don't think they sell online. We're not too far from you though, you could make it a weekend getaway! :)

I am completely in love with your pillowcases, especially since crochet is my main craft :]
I just might have to make a few for myself, or maybe some shams with crochet edgings.

Very beautiful work, I love it!
Posted by: kirsty vittetoe | March 18, 2010 at 09:31 PM
Your work is absolutely beautiful! I am inspired to try it myself. I have a pair of soft yellow pillowcases that I have been trying to decide how to embellish and now I think I know! Thank you for the inspiration.

Any chance of a tutorial on crochet-ing pillow trims? It looks like a very fun little project.
Posted by: Allison | March 21, 2010 at 01:49 PM
I started crocheting at age seven (43 years ago...)Since learning to knit, I seldom crochet anymore, but your pillow cases.....they make me so happy. I'm gonna have to try my hand at it. Any chance you will publish a pattern. I could try it on my own, but I would so support any pattern efforts by purchasing one and encouraging my friends to as well.

Your pillowcases are just lovely! I was inspired to make some new pillowcases for our living room. Thank you! :)
