craftgrrl | Lately I am obsessed with upcycling pillowcases

I have had this case so long, I can't remember where it came from or even having a sheet set that matched it. It is faded with yellow flowers, and I needed a tote bag for when we go to the water park. My b.f. is always complaining that when I make totes or purses, I need to put boyfriend pockets on the inside.

I was able to put stained pieces of the case on the inside, too. So that was an added bonus. It's very simple, I didn't even do any pressing. I just did lots of cutting, folding, and pinning. It is a lot more even than it looks in the picture, except the embroidery on the boyfriend pocket. I'm not sure how that got crooked. Overall I am pleased with it. We were just at the water park a few days ago, so it's fresh in my mind what I wanted in a tote.
