American Patchwork & Quilting 1 Million Pillowcase Challenge

American Patchwork and Quilting magazine has issued a challenge for 2010. They want us to join them to Make a Pillowcase, Make a Difference. A pillowcase can provide comfort for a cancer patient, hope for a foster child, encouragement for a battered woman, or beauty for a nursing home resident.

Pillowcase Party - Saturday May 15, 10 a.m. to 5:30 p.m.

Saturday, May 15 from 10 a.m. to 5:30 p.m.

Grab your best friends, bring your sewing machines and join in the fun! We'll show you a quick and easy way to sew a pillowcase so you can make a whole stack of them in no time. All the pillowcases we make will be donated to a charity organization and registered on the One Million Pillowcase Challenge Official Counter.
