On Monday, Nov. 13th (Okay, tomorrow), the quilter’s guild will create kits for pillowcase sewing at home and put some of them together in the hall.
We have a bunch of fun with this project, and so do the recipients. Usually, we get special requests from county child services to “custom” make pillowcases according to the child’s taste. Adult protective services are also provided with personalized pillowcases.
The personalized pillowcases program, created by Donna Staub, and now being managed by Joan Patterson, has become extremely popular, so that means we have many, MANY pillowcases to sew around holiday time. Many kids and older adults are in temporary homes and do not have access to their own things. To get a custom-made pillowcase, just for them, means so much.
I hope you consider joining us tomorrow morning starting at 9:00 am. You won’t regret it!
