A thought occurred to me about a dorothy type pillow bag. I know how difficult it is to hem circular pieces of fabric - well, it is for me!! How about looking out for 48" dia circular table cloths during sales and buy two. I know I have bought similar cloths after Christmas so I have them for next season for very reasonable prices ($8). Sew the two together around the edge, leaving a space on either side, make another line of stitching a little further in leaving enough room between the two lines of sewing to insert a strong cord to use for the handles. When drawn up the cloth would cover the pillow with no fear of catching the pins on rough edges and the "handles" might even be long enough to carry over the bag your shoulder. You could even use two different patterned table cloths so that you could have a reversible bag. The other advantage is that you could put your pillow on your table and drop the sides down to make a pretty cloth while you work. Just a thought.... Janice
