Improv Log Cabin Pillow Cover
Pillow covers are a great way to bring a fresh change to your home décor. My “Improv Log Cabin Pillow Cover Tutorial” features an improvisational patchwork technique that creates a completely unique design.
The pillow cover has an envelope closure, so that you can remove the insert for laundering. It’s simple to put together, which makes it a perfect project for both beginner and experienced sewers. Use your favorite color of solids to coordinate with your furnishings, or pick your favorites prints to customize your version.

Simply cut a plain piece of fabric for the front instead. For a 20" pillow, to use the same instructions for the Envelope Closure, cut the front piece 20.5" x 20.5" and proceed with the instructions for the Envelope Closure portion. Happy Sewing!
