Pillows of Hope -My youngest daughters project

Hello every!

Yes I know it's been too long since I've had a post, but sometimes life gets in the way.

I want to share with you a wonderful project my daughter Katie is doing. It's called Pillows of Hope and she will be sewing and donating pillowcases to Cincinnati Children's Hospital Medical Center!

In studies it's been proven that a soft, cozy object, whether it be a doll, blanket or pillow, will calm a child facing a stressful situation. Katie wants each child and teen to be able to have something of their own to hold on to. Being a teen herself she knows some of the older kids might be embarrassed bringing something from home would appreciate having a soft pillowcase!

Please read the blogs I've posted relating to this project. If you know how to sew get out that machine and 100% cotton fabric and help bring comfort and hope to the children! You'll find the directions on one of the blogs. 

Katie just started a facebook page--be sure to follow her-she is hoping people all over will send her pillowcases and she will post pictures as well as thank yous from children. www.facebook.com/pillowsofhope

This is a very exciting project and we hope you will want to join us too!
