Sit ‘n Sew for Charity – March 2010 Meeting

As you know, pillow cases will be our March Charity project.  We have found that many hospitals are MORE 
than happy to get these, not only for cancer patients but for all kids and teens in hospital.  We are told that fabrics 
suitable for teens are most welcome, as most people first think of little kids when doing a project like this
