Million Pillowcase Challenge

Starts on 24 Apr 2010

American Patchwork & Quilting® magazine is challenging quilters, crafters and sewers across the country to Make a Pillowcase, Make a Difference. Sew Special Studio has joined the cause to help reach the goal of making and donating one million pillowcases to benefit local charities. During our February event, the ladies (and gentleman!) finised 150 pillowcases for local Women's shelters --We had 20 participants -- and they were quite competitive!!

Every pillowcase can make a difference in our community.  These pillowcasew can provide comfort for Hospice patients -- and later be a sweet heirloom for family members.

Join us on Saturday April 24th for a Pillowcase Party!  Sewing is even more fun when you sew with friends -- so we're having a party!  Sew Special Studio will provide the pillowcase kits, sewing supplies, irons & space, door prizes, a light lunch,  and of course, goodies!
