I get a few started when my grandkids are visiting. They enjoy picking out the fabrics, and we pray for the recipients as we go. They especially love doing pillowcases because they go so quick. On the border I use my machine to write "Everywhere on earth I roam, where I lay my head is home". They go to the shelters locally and occasionally to the Red Cross for a disaster relief. We started doing this for the Joplin tornado, and we do it now because the kids are excited about it. My fabric is very inexpensive from clearance racks, so the cost is minimal. I use coupons for batting, and I always get thread on sale. I hope they never get too old to appreciate the value of giving.
