This is not just an endorsement for a company - it's an endorsement for a deliberate choice I have made to look for the good, the encouraging, and the quirky in my life.

Pillowcases as comfort

About Sandy Hook Elementary Pillow Case Drive

HI everyone, The Quilters Corner in New Milford CT has started a pillow case drive for the children of Sandy Hook elementary school.
I saw this on my google feed this morning and have decided that this is at least something I can do. I may donate the pillowcases I make to a local charity, but at least I can sew a little and pray a lot for victims of violence, for policymakers, for those who stand ready to help.
I believe the goal is to get 600 pillowcases done so the children can receive them after Christmas break. I know it is a small thing to do....but a pillow is always a great comfort and to be able to give these children a little extra peace at night would be a wonderful thing.

This is the mailing address for the Quilter's Corner:
312 Danbury Rd. ( Rt. 7), New Milford, CT 06776
Please feel free to pass this along, let's get these done for Sandy Hook

  1. What a beautiful idea! I hope you share pictures of the sewing you did. I'm sure they were all lovely! Christmas break is over now, but I might still share this with some of the sewer-friends I have in this part of the world.
