Because the the LQS is too far away for me to deliver, I mail mine to a local hosital's cancer center.

A quilting friendship group I belong to made some for the local quilt shop that was collecting them. It's definitely a feel good project! You did a wonderful job making so many.

I have 12 pillow case kits that I am making this weekend for my LQS.

Great job with the pillowcases, they are so colorful that I'm sure the kids will love them.

Hope your posting gets a few more quilters to make some pillowcases, doesn't need to be a lot - just whatever they can. If their LQS isn't taking part in the Million Pillowcase Challenge they can check out this website to find their local coordinator and/or drop off sites, ConKerrCancer.org

My guild is taking part in the Million Pillowcase Challenge through our LQS. We hold monthly pillowcase sew ins at our quild's meeting place and sew ins every other month at the LQS. Quilt shop's owner set a goal of 1,000 pillowcases for this year and we're almost there. All our pillowcases are donated to local hospitals and right now we're working on Holiday and Winter themed pillowcases so we have enough pillowcases for the Holiday partys each hospital holds for the kids and their families, everyone gets a new fun pillowcase.

What a warm hearted thing to do. You deserve praise and blessings for donating so much!

Re-read my posting above and realized that I made it seem as if ConKerrCancer was the only place to donate. If you check out the allpeople quilt site you can find info there and where you or your group may want to donate, hospitals, vets, shelters, wherever you choose is perfectly OK. May in Jersey
