Enchanting Makeovers is a wonderful charity that remodels shelters for women and children to make them cozy and more home like.
They gift each woman and child with a new handmade pillowcase for them to use while they are in the shelter and then take with them when they leave.
I'm organizing a pillowcase project and hope some Farmgirls want to get involved. Just make a cute pillowcase and ship it to me by
sept 30.
There is a free pattern at Allpeoplequilt.com
if you don't sew. I can always use cute fabric. It takes about a yard for a pillowcase.
I will deliver all the pillowcases in October and let you all know how we did.
Check out their website, too.
enchantedmakeovers.org
Email me and I will send you my address.
Thanks bunches

hey Michele
send me your addy...I can whip one up...I too like making them...
What size? twin/dbl or queen/king?
When I make them I usually make them in King and tell the recipiants if they want it to be double or Queen just flip them inside out & stitch the bottom end up to the size to fit.
But since this is for a child,,,I am thinking Twin or Dbl.
Ok, Tag...U-R-it....send me an addy.
