Place the square part face up. From the top, put one of the rectangular parts upside down, so that the machined edge is at the bottom. Align the top and side edges and pin them together. Then, on top, lay the second rectangular part upside down so that the machined edge is up. Align the side and bottom edges and pin them together. Lay the stitch around the entire perimeter, the allowance is 1.3 cm. Cut the corners, departing 2 mm from the stitch.

Turn the pillowcase on the front side, straighten the corners well, iron the seams. Lay a line around the perimeter, stepping back from the edge of 1.5 cm.
