Charity Project: "1 Million Pillowcase Challenge"

American Patchwork & Quilting is challenging you to join our efforts to Make a Pillowcase, Make a Difference. Every pillowcase can make a difference in your community. A pillowcase can provide comfort for a cancer patient, hope for a foster child, encouragement for a battered woman, or beauty for a nursing home resident.
 



To download free patterns & instructions: 



Charities to donate locally (suggestions):  Hospice, Veteran's hospitals, Senior nursing care facilities, VFW posts for active service personnel or veterans, Oncology units, Missions, Ronald McDonald House, Homeless shelters, Women's shelters, Youth shelters, etc.  

Make a pillowcase and donate to a local charity.   Once your pillowcases are complete and donated to an organization, log on to the All People Quilt website and enter how many pillowcases you made.  

Help us reach our goal of ONE MILLION Pillowcases.
