Editor’s note: Sadly, the blog linked to in this post is no longer available. If it becomes available again, I’ll be sure to post an update here with the new link.

You can find tutorials for similar pillowcases at The Cottage Home (ruffle at the end) and Sew4Home (ruffles all around the edge).

The Lazy Organizer offers a tutorial for making these lovely ruffled pillowcases and shams. The ruffles and the tie closures seem so luxurious. I think I’m in love! She shows them made out of several coordinating prints, but I think a solid white would also be gorgeous. Get the tutorial.
