Ladies I took a few of the pillowcases to my guild meeting today and told them what we are doing and they all applauded us! Too cool!

Turns out that about 1/3 of my guild has sons/grandsons/daughters/nephews/nieces etc currently on active duty somewhere.

Thank you so much! I look forward to seeing them all.

(((HUGS!)))

Bubbles, are you going to reach your goal of 32? I want to get more fabric and make more pillowcases for our wonderful folks in the military! Are you going to keep collecting them? Kathy, should we start making them for your son's platoon? I am rarin' to sew! God bless everyone involved in this worthwhile and wonderful project. You all make me so happy to be part of this group!!
Blessings on all of you!
