One of the projects I decided to do for my birthday. Throw Pillow covers.

The set up wasn't too bad for a novice, however if you use the same pattern 

I suggest using a trim that is less thick unless you have a machine

 that supports the thickness.This is the site where I found the pattern.

How To Sew A Throw Pillow Cover In 10 Easy Steps

 I really need to dual cut things so they match up, cause pinning for me was a nightmare.

 First try, not so bad, but the second almost got thrown out.

 The finished product. I swear in the store the fabric looked green, which is

why the trim is a dark olive green. 

Turns out ity 's the same color as the couch.

 The back seam.

 Oh yeah, in case you haven't heard I bought a sewing machine

on overstock. Factory reconditioned Janome. Cheap!

Pretty basic, but if I get better I'll buy a better one.
