Hem the short edge(s) of the pillow case (I chose not to hem salvage edge as it will not fray).

Start by falling the raw edge over and ironing (image 1)

Then fold the edge over on itself and iron again. This will prevent frays (image 2)

Pin the hem and straight stitch sew along the hem as close as you can to the inside edge of the hem (image 3)

Repeat the folding ironing and pining of the top and bottom edges of the pillow case but do not sew these yet.
