    ,f you are starting with a piece of fabric that is 36 - 40 inches long, fold it in half, right
    sides together, and stitch up one side. Then hem the bottom.

    Instructions for everyone:

    Step one: Cut the pillowcase off, leaving the hemmed end, using the following
    measurements:
    6 months - 14 1/4"
    12 months - 16 1/4"
    18 months - 17 1/4"
    2T - 18 1/4"
    3T - 19 1/4"
    4T - 20 1/4"

    Then cut a strip from the leftover pillowcase that is 1 1/2" tall. See picture for visual. Cut
    the strip open and then in half, so you have two strips, 1 1/2" tall by about 20" long.
