You could do the interior in canvas if you wanted to. I wanted to let you know I have a pillowcase just like the one shown here. It is vintage made in about the sixties. I inheired my Aunt's estate and there are so many pillowcases. Now I have something to do with them. Have you ever heard of a circle purse? That would be a good idea on this if the outside of your pillowcase didn't look that good. I saw a small purse, it's cloth, with a zipper, cloth straps, and cordinating fabric. First make the purse and then you put circles all over it sewing them on the front of the purse. The circles are with both sides together, then turn inside out and sew around the circle, sew onto purse.
