When we moved to Oklahoma I went to the JustServe website to see what service projects were in the area that maybe I could help with. One project in particular looked doable. A local hospital has fabric that they would like people to turn into pillowcases. When a child stays at their hospital they get to choose a pillowcase and keep it. It was on my list of things I wanted to do once things settled down around here, but imagine my surprise when I found out the Young Women at Church were working on the same project. I came to help sew, but I ended up showing everyone how to make them instead. Nora and I were the only two who had ever made them before, so we helped everyone with the process. I didn't even touch my sewing machine that night. Since I didn't get to sew I took a bunch of cut fabric home with me. Yesterday during nap time I whipped up 4 pillowcases and then finished the fifth one in the evening. I like fun and easy projects like that. They're finishing up the project tomorrow night at church, so I'll probably take home whatever is left to quickly make the last of them.
