DUVET COVER DIY - Duvet Cover dari Perca

Continuing my Duvet Cover .. here I made A Cup Cake Pillow Case.
 A new blanket is incomplete if it is not paired with pillows, bolster and  bed linen with a similar theme of the blanket. That's why I also prepare the other bedding set completeness. For bed sheets and bolsters I think almost any of you know how to make it .. And here, what I want to write on this page is the pillowcase

Part - II ( PILLOW CASE )

Because my little girl is still in toddler age  so I use a toddler pillow size: 20 'x 16'

This is an envelope pillowcase  , so zipper, buttons or velcro tape are no needed. Details on how to make envelope cushion I've also written on other pages, you can peek my cushion articles in another part of this blog.

For this pillow case,,, I give an extra length each side + 3 " ,  to make it not too fit when the pillow is inserted. As pillows come in many different varieties, the best way to get a good fit is by adding more inches around the pillow case.. it will give you enough space for you to sew the side seam and also give more space for pillow…

Still using the fabric scraps, I choose a light  pink /baby pink as the main color.
Baby pink combined with a cute little dotty pattern ...
Do the applique embroidery. I use cup cake pattern like this:

About how to make applique you can see in another page of this blog .. I also embroidered her name on  the pillow case to make it more special. I did this using embroidery machine, , you can also embroider with hand embroidery, the result are also beautiful, even more special because it is done by hand so each puncture is very valuable as it is stitched with heart. 

At the beginning, I wanted to add a piping around the pillow circumference .. I have prepared a dark green piping just like the previous blanket ,, but .. because when I did sew this pillowcase I was accompanied by my first son, and he telling me about funny stories when he was at the classroom ,, so I was forget to sew this piping ... hahhaa .. LOL .. 

Well.. That's the beauty of motherhood .. Really happy if I can work at home, I am accompanied by my children all day .. Listen to them telling stories, sad story , funny story .. laughing together .. One thing that  I didn't get when I worked at my previous job ... aww....hihhiii ..

Well ..back to the pillow case.. without piping still okay .. Maybe next time I 'll use piping for my next project.

Here it is .. the pillow and duvet cover is already ... hoorraaay..

She loves them so much..

Next time I will make one bedding set for my son, he is in love with "Mine Craft Game'.. Well, maybe " a Mine Craft bedding' will be my next project.. just let's see ^_^

Any questions about the above article? You may add to the comment column below ......thank you.. ^_^

happy sewing.. 

Continuing my Duvet Cover .. here I made A Cup Cake Pillow Case.
Masih lanjutan yang sebelumnya yaa.. Sebuah selimut baru tidak lengkap kalau tidak dipasangkan dengan bantal guling dan sprei dengan motif yang senada dengan selimutnya. Untuk itu saya siapkan pula kelengkapan bedding set yang lainnya. Untuk sprei dan guling saya rasa hampir semua penghobby jahit bisa membuatnya.. Yang ingin saya tulis pada laman ini adalah sarung bantalnya saja.

Part - II ( PILLOW CASE )

Karena anak-anak saya masih kecil-kecil jadi saya menggunakan bantal ukuran anak-anak, toddler pillow berukuran: 20” x 16”  

Sarung bantal ini berbentuk envelope , jadi tanpa retsleting, tanpa kancing ataupun velcro. Detil tentang cara membuat envelope cushion juga pernah saya tulis dilaman lain, kamu bisa intip artikel cushion saya pada bagian lain di blog ini.

Untuk sarung-nya saya lebihkan tiap sisinya + 3”  biar lebih longgar tidak sempit ketika di isi dengan bantal.

Pillows come in many different varieties, the best way to get a good fit is by adding more inches around the pillow case.. it will give you enough space for you to sew the side seam and also give more space for pillow…

Masih menggunakan bahan perca, saya memakai warna pink muda yang agak pucat sebagai warna utamanya. Dan karena menggunakan bahan perca jadi saya pakai se-tersedianya bahan..

Baby pink dikombinasi motif dotty kecil yang lucu.. sambung semua bagiannya menjadi seukuran 20"x16", lalu bordir applique. Saya pakai motif cup cake seperti ini :

Detil cara membuat applique bisa kamu lihat pada bagian blog ini juga ya.. Dan agar lebih istimewa saya menambahkan namanya tepat dibawah applique berbentuk cupcake. Kebetulan namanya saya bordir, kamu bisa juga menambahkan namanya dengan disulam, hasilnya tak kalah indah, malah lebih istimewa karena dikerjakan dengan tangan jadi tiap tusuknya sangat bernilai karena dikerjakan dengan sangat hati-hati.

Tadinya saya ingin menambahkan piping pada keliling tepi bantal.. saya sudah menyiapkan piping warna hijau tua seperti selimutnya,, tapi..karena waktu menjahit sarung bantal ini saya ditemani oleh anak laki-laki saya, dan dia bercerita tentang cerita-cerita lucu ketika dia di sekolah,, dan saya pun jadi lupa memasang piping-nya karena sibuk tertawa… hahhaa.. LOL.. That's the beauty of motherhood.. Bahagia jika bisa bekerja dirumah sambil ditemani anak-anak sepanjang hari.. Mendengarkan dia bercerita, kisah sedihnya, cerita lucunya..tertawa bersama.. Satu hal yang tidak saya dapat ketika saya masih bekerja kantoran... aww..jadi melow..hihhiii..

Well.. without piping still ok.. Maybe next time I’ll use piping for my next project.

Ini dia.. bantal dan duvet cover-nya sudah siiyyaap…

She loves them so much..

Next time I will make one bedding set for my son, he is in love with "Mine Craft Game'.. Well, maybe " a Mine Craft bedding' will be my next project.. just let's see ^_^
