Thanks Linda, I pm'd Judy and told her you might do that. I'm here in Albuquerque and hope for Sandi and I to meet her. I'm being lazy and posting under Sandi's name.....LOL Having a great time visiting the Quilt Shops. Sandi has me chained up in her sewing room. Shoot, mine should look so clean.

Hope everyone has a great day, love and prayers to y'all.

Are you still looking for help with this? If so, I would be glad to.

Judy, are the lap quilts for both Ladies and Men? With my limited space to machine quilt, these are about all I make anymore.

If I have missed anyone and not responded to your offer to help with the pillowcases, please forgive me. I hope I am getting the hang of doing a "PM" correctly. Let me know and I will send the information you need in a PM. Have a wonderful Easter weekend all.

Judy,

I have a question about this project.

If we were to put the pillowcases in a plastic zip lock baggie with a card or little note thanking them for their service and our address would they be delivered to the servicemen or women that way? Or do you put them all in a one bag to send them? I was thinking maybe if my girls wanted to I would have them make one to send too.

Just received 4 more cases from grandmataz and thank you so much. I think I will take a pic of all cases and write a little article about everyone at the Quilt In A Day Forum and their generosity, and submit it to our local paper, The Albuquerque Journal.

I will be sending out some pillowcases in the am tomorrow as the post office is closed now. I just finished 3 and I think I have a couple more that were ready before Paducah.
