pillowcase challenge

I have some great news to share with you! Two of my katie jean creations are going to be published in an upcoming book from Lark books!! I am really excited about it and can hardly wait to see that it is real.



Claire, from Handmade Parade, was hosting a pillowcase challenge. Then Beth, from Lark, saw my fabric covered match box on the pillowcase challenge flickr group. She asked me to submit pictures of one, for their new book. So I made a nicer fabric covered box then the one on flickr (which looks really awful) and I also submitted some coasters. All made using thrifted vintage pillowcases.

Craft Challenge: Dozens of Ways to Repurpose a Pillowcase will be released in March 2009.
