Pillow Covers

Previously, we had these red colored suede/microfiber pillows on our couch. They were really nice, but so hard to keep clean. Dustin decided that I needed to make covers so that we could wash them easier. He even made it a priority to visit my favorite fabric store and picked out fabric all by himself. What a guy! I actually finished these a couple of weeks ago, but I am just now getting around to taking the photos. I used a really simple tutorial found here. I think it took me less than an hour to make all three of these covers. The larger pillows are 16' square and the smaller green check pillow is a 14' square pillow. It was actually so simple and I love the new pillows. I think I might make a few more in the future just to give us more options. Maybe next time I'll try a little applique on the front of one!
