A pillowcase is always a good first sewing project. They’re easy to make, requiring just a few simple straight seams. But they’re also pretty and functional, something you can see and use every day knowing that you made it. If you have a child who wants to learn to sew, I highly recommend helping them make a pillowcase like this one. Becky from Patchwork Posse shares a tutorial showing how you can make a pillowcase with a contrast cuff. It’ll fit a standard bed pillow.
