Pillowcases for the "three bears"


First project of the new year: pillowcases for David and two of his friends who collectively identify themselves as Grizzly Bear, Polar Bear and Koala Bear.

Before Christmas, we purchased the novelty bear fabrics. I pulled some coordinating fabrics from my stash and, in one post-holiday afternoon, we split sewing/pressing tasks to complete these three pillowcases.

 
David did a fantastic job of carefully sewing straight seams. I put the blue painter's tape down for an easy seam gauge/guide.
 
I'm excited for what 2014 has in store! I'm currently cleaning/organizing my dining room/sewing space for all that is ahead. Happy New Year!
