Project Pillowcase Challenge 2024
|
| It's Back! By popular request, our Project Pillowcase Challenge is back for a 3rd year. |
 |
| Our goal this year for the Pillowcase Challenge is to collect 1500 pillowcases for local area charities; Women's Shelter, Foster Kids, Police & Fire Department, Veteran's Home, and Nursing Homes. With your help in 2022, we collected 1080 pillowcases. In 2023, we collected 2064. We are hoping to provide pillowcases for the Ryan's Case for Smiles as we did last year but unfortunately, they currently do not have an Oregon or Washington Chapter Organizer. If anyone is interested in leading the Oregon Chapter, please email me and I can give you the contact information. 9/6/2024 Update: We DO have a mid to southern Oregon Coordinator and they are excited to accept our donations again this year! If you would like information to be a northern Oregon Coordinator, please email me for contact information. |
| Pillowcases are a fun and fast sewing project. They are addictive to make! This is a great project for learning how to coordinate fabric....you only need 3 pieces of fabric! |
| Pillowcases are also a good introductory sewing project or a first project for a young sewer. It's easy for you to take part in the challenge. We have all the details listed below. |
| You can find an easy Burrito-Style FREE Pillowcase Pattern available HERE. |
