A pillowcase for good sleep

Imagine all the sheet and pillowcases you can find in Swedish homes. Now we don´t use them. It is much more comfortable to use quilt covers with matching pillowcases. You have to admire our old female relatives who have worked so hard to make utilitarian wares. I have a sheet too, as beautiful as the pillowcase.

Pillowcase in cotton-cloth with Venetian embroidery. About 1915.
