Country Shabby Chic Pillow Sham of the Month!

I used a Moda Charm pack to create this month’s fun pillow sham.  To start lay out all the charms and choose the ones you want to use in your sham. 

I loved working with this charm pack so much that I made two more pillow shams.  Both are on sale in ebay, if you would like one too.

If you want to make your own sham this is what I did.  First I had fun looking at all the patterns and colors in the charm Pack.  Then, I laid out all the charms and choose the ones I wanted to use in my sham.  I sewed four across and then ironed the seams flat.  Then I sewed three rows together and again ironed the seams flat. 

Next, I cut two rectangles measuring 14” x 11”.  Then, I hem one side of each of the rectangles measuring so that they measure when hemmed 9 ¼”.  Next with right sides facing together I laid the hemmed rectangles so that they slightly overlap in the middle on top of the sham.
