    A fun quick project to change your decor!

    I used the charts for cutting and found them to be very clear and easy to use. The instructions for putting everything together was concise and easy to follow. I loved having the different options all in one.

    Directions were easy to understand. I was very excited to realize the large size fits a standard bed pillow.

  10. Shona Young –

    Such a versatile pattern. I’ve only made a small square so far but I will make many more. So many options to choose from.

  11. Mariah Fair-Wall –

    This pattern was super simple & quick. The envelope method made it even simpler than adding a zipper or closure. Loved how quick it was to do, and so much fun to dress up with some trim in a super simple method.

  12. Rebekah Homer –

    There’s so many options! And while pillowcases are generally pretty simple, it is wonderful to have this pattern on hand. There are great detailed instructions on multiple closures, size dimensions for different pillows, and a guide to fun embellishments. Even though I made a simple square with invisible zipper, I loved having the directions to guide me through the zipper.

  13. Amy Kosandiak –

    These are a really quick and easy way to freshen up your decor or whip up some gifts!

  14. Vicky Hughes –

    The pillow cover is such a great pattern, there are so many options the possibilities are endless!

  15. Luana Furlanetto –

    This is such an easy and quick sew! I used scraps to fill the pillow and the pillowcase is made from scraps from another project. I love to repurpose!

  16. Amelia Keating –

    Quick and simple sew! Easy to whip out a bunch for gifts, or for yourself! Great way to refresh some decor around the house.

  17. Malia Pope –

    Very fast and beginner friendly sew.

  18. Nicki Hibbits –

    It doesn’t take long to make square pillow covers with a center opening. In fact, it took longer to select the fabric. These quick-to-sew pillow covers were so easy to cut and sew that after I made the first pillow cover I decided to recover the remaining 5 pillows in my living room. This was the fastest redecorating project I’ve ever done!

  19. Bunford Orsi –

    This is a super easy sew! Lots of options, sizes!

  20. Diane Cullum –

    I couldn’t figure out the open end rectangle instructions, so chose to sew the 18” zipper version. The tutorial was easy to follow for that option. Wish my forms were a bit fluffier though!

  21. Branka Čelić –

    These pillow covers are so quick and easy to sew, that it is perfect for beginners and kids too. Makes and excellent custom made house decor.

  22. Nadine Simard –

    This was a quick project and the pattern offers lot of options. I’m planning to use it again.

  23. Keri Kiel –

    Loved this one!! so quick and simple and looks really nice 🙂

  24. Adelle Pears –

    So versatile! I increased the largest size to 40×30 square with a zip closure to make a floor cushion. It is big enough to store a superking size duvet and 4 pillows! The instructions as always are excellent and there are so many different options included.

  25. June Butchee –

    This is a great beginner friendly pattern to make your own custom pillows for anything you like, furniture, beds etc. There are so many options with this pattern. So many shapes, ways to embellish and choice of closures. I made the 18 inch square with some upholstery-type fabric and pillow forms that I’ve had laying around for years waiting on the perfect pattern. I made two pillows with the center-back fold in 45 minutes. The longest part of construction was folding the center seams over twice and hemming them. Serging the inside only took about 5 minutes per pillow. I would highly recommend this pattern.

  26. Carrie-Ann –

    really easy sew, many options to make, different finishes, lovelly pattern

  27. Jaq Platt –

    Great quick way to update your decor for different seasons. Easy to follow instructions, lots of options to personalize your pillows, and quick to sew up.

  28. Tiina Norrkniivilä –

    The zipper version is super easy and fast to sew! The version with ties needs a little bit more time as the turning of the ties may take a little bit longer. But after that it’s just a few seams and your ready. If you have been avoiding to sew new pillow covers, this is the pattern that gets you started!

  29. Brigitte Sauve –

    Once again this Rebecca Page pattern did not disappoint! It was clear, concise and to the point. I’m pretty sure this project took me less than 30 minutes from printing and picking fabric to executing and completion. Two thumbs up!

  30. Deepthi Gunasheker –

    Very easy and fast sew. Several options to easily Revamp indoor space with cushions covers.

  31. Julie McKinley –

    This is a “must have” basic starter pattern! Perfect starting place for sewing beginners and yet a spring board of options for the “old pros”.

  32. Taiko Karen Rai –

    Simple to follow pattern with lots of options. I was thrilled how perfectly the square size medium fit the couch cushions I had. Was able to sew up some Christmas cushion covers for the season and will make some for upcoming holidays.

    Made two open back options and they were so simple and fun to make! The ruffle add on to the medium size square I made took more time than I had expected, but it turned out perfect!
