1 Million Pillowcase Challenge

Have you heard about this challenge? Check it out here. I think this fits in nicely with our charity quilts. One or two Saturdays in January we will devote to making pillowcases. I'll post the dates after I get the schedule. We will need some people to sew, some to cut and some to iron. With everyone helping we should be able to make a big difference. Let's set a goal and see how quickly we can reach it.

This is a wonderful opportunity to go through your stash and use it up (so you can buy more of course). Talk to your friends...maybe they would like to join us. I already have a friend who would like to donate money to help buy supplies.

Kosair Children's Hospital is on the list of charities that will accept pillowcases. I called the Hospice inpatient unit at Norton and they would be glad to receive some pillowcases. If you have another charity that you'd like to donate to bring the information to the group and the group will decide.
