Striped Pillow

My new project is complete.  How's that for fast.  My friend Marilyn is doing some redecorating and needed a pillow to match the cushion on her bench so yesterday I made this cover.

Word of Advice:  don't make the pillow cover ANY bigger than the pillow form.  No need for ease.  I had to cut this one down after I made it... but it was pretty quick all things considered.

The piping is just the reverse of the striped fabric.  I hope she likes it...

Camera Cozy

Today I made a couple of camera cozies for my son and I.  I used that super heavy double sided iron on interfacing so I got a very stiff product.  I used this interfacing for my reader cozy and I liked it a lot.  It gives quite a bit of heft and I hope protection of the electronic item.  The green one is pretty simple with exposed zigzag stitching.  I'm not sure about the velcro just from the sound factor.  Often I am trying to get my camera out of my purse quietly at some function so maybe a button would have been better,  hmmm..

This red plaid one is more secure because of the zipper but it was a wrestling exercise to get it turned right side out after using that super heavy interfacing I got from Fabricland.  As you can see I topstitched along the zipper after I installed it as it just wouldn't lay flat with the stiffness of the interfacing.  I like this one too though.  We'll see which one my son chooses...
