I went a little monogram crazy there :)

So much better than the 'before' :)

I spent all day on dafont.com looking for a monogram I really liked, but in the end I just went with the first one I'd found...

A great solution for those who don't have/know freezer paper (we don't have it in Belgium) can use the wrapping paper they use for packing printer paper.
It has a fine wax coating on the inside to protect the printing paper from moist, that also makes it easy to iron on your fabric once you've cut out your stencil.

Also, if you don't have a printer (guilty), use pattern paper. It's light enough to be able to see through when you hold it up to your computer screen. Then you can draw your design and stick it to the freezer paper.
After painting you can just tear the stencil off of your pillowcase. I'm sure there are plenty of how-to's on stenciling with freezer paper ;)

This was a great time consumer on those lazy sundays :)
