I've got a finish that I'm thinking of possibly making in to a cushion cover or pillow cover - does anyone have a how-to guide? I'd need to be able to take it off the cushion pad or pillow, as it's a gift for a little boy and I am reliably informed that little boys tend to be messy creatures so his mother would need to be able to wash it as needed! Should I back the stitching with something (interfacing maybe?) before making it in to a pillow case, to protect it when the pillow or cushion pad was taken in and out of it, or would it be OK as it is? Any help very gratefully received

I would interface it 1st And possible stitch round parts of the design

I hae a guide saved on my work computer. I can email it tomorrow. Send me a PM with your email addy. There's pics that go with it. Someone sent it to me a couple years ago for the same purpose.

PM sent, thank you and thanks Reta, I will interface it first then
