Fabric suggestions
The Jig Is Up Pillow Set is intended to help clear up those fabric scraps without producing any new ones in the process. Any woven material can work for this project, although medium to heavy weight fabrics will provide the best structure to the shape. Lighter weight cotton or linen fabrics can work, but may benefit from a layer of fusible interfacing to add extra durability and opacity. If you plan to stuff your pillowcase set with fabric scraps, the thicker the material the better! When stuffing with scraps, the result can look a bit lumpy. Using a thicker material can help hide this appearance, such as wool felt, corduroy, denim twills, or upholstery materials. But do not worry if you want to use a lighter weight fabric – the scraps relax over time and those lumpy areas smooth out. Especially if being used as a pillow (or fur baby’s bed) frequently!
Fabric selection can affect difficulty level. Choose a fabric with a good amount of “ease” for a more beginner friendly sewing experience. Ease is the amount of natural give, or stretch, in your fabric which is very helpful for all the puzzle curves in this pattern! If you plan on mixing materials, try to pick fabrics that have a similar weight for a more beginner friendly project.
