Pillowcases Galore!

I'm part of a lovely group of ladies that were once members of National Charity League with our daughters.  They have graduated from high school so now we are known as Sustainers.  We get together several times a year to socialize and continue philanthropy projects.  The past few months we've been making pillowcases using the "taco" or "hot dog" technique for children with cancer.  The charity gives them to the kids to use while in the hospital or receiving other treatments.  We've made 46 so far and I'll deliver this batch tomorrow.  It's been a lot of fun and some of these women don't sew!  They have helped in many ways == buying fabric, measuring, cutting, pressing and serving dessert!  Here's some pictures of our pillowcases.

Here's all 46 of them!


We have so many different fun fabrics:  flowers, puppies, football helmuts, baseballs, ballerinas, tractors, bugs, zebra print, frogs, monkeys, peace signs, hearts, just to name some of them.  We hope it helps to bring a liitle happiness into these children's lives.
