I make all my pillows this way and think it's the best/ simplest, since I'm kind of ADD when it comes to long projects. The covers I made are posted here : https://wp.me/p12tDW-e8 .

Now I will need to find cheap pillow inserts, using your post from yesterday, and make more pillow covers!

"**This is for a standard 19” full form down pillow. If you are using a cotton insert, or something that is sort of flat, you will need to take 1 1/2-2” off of the pillow cover size to “plump” your pillow up a little."

Great tutorial! And, as always, you make everything seem so easy! I've been making my pillow covers this way for years. Would never have occurred to me to sew a narrow seam on the two sides that aren't cut – keeps the crease that way.
I'm guessing your fabric is at least 48" wide.
Take care and all the best. Have a great weekend!
Cathy
P.S. The flowchart is fabulous and so funny! CM
