Welcome to the Laundry Basket Quilts Studio! As you walk in through the door.
All may seem calm collected and organized.
Quilts are resting.
Fabrics are stashed.
But once you make your way upstairs where I spend most of my time.
It’s busy as usual!
Only 4 weeks to Fall Market and we have many new ideas and fabrics in the works! But it is also nice to take a break for an opportunity to brighten someone’s day.
Thank you to American Patchwork and Quilting for this wonderful blog hop with a challenge of donating one million pillowcases to local charities. Many charities can benefit from the donation of a pillowcase and the challenge gives the opportunity to make a difference in your community – I love it!
It was so easy to download a pattern from their website for a pillow case (here is the link).
I then choose, cut, and sewed my fabrics to 4 soft pillowcases, it really didn’t take much time at all. For some reason, I can’t explain, I smiled as I worked.
I couldn’t help but imagine someone snuggling with this gift and smiling.
Maybe this challenge should have been called: “One Million Pillow Cases – Two Million Smiles”
Please make a pillowcase that will put a smile on someone’s face. If you do, click here to register your donations at American Patchwork and Quilting, then leave me a comment by October 15 and you will be entered into a drawing for some of my newest quilting goodies!
Happy stitching this fall and visit us again soon.
