    That is such a wonderful idea! Anything we can do to show our troops that we care is appreciated.

    What a wonderful project Grandmom. Could you tell us where we could send pillowcases? It sounds like a wonderful gift from home.

    MarjaMT, It's wonderful that you made all of those pillowcases for our soldiers. It's overwhelming the number of people in need from the soldiers, people in Haiti, people in hospice and just needy, poor people in our neighborhoods. There just isn't the time to make for everyone in need. We can only do so much to help. Eiltocq.

    I just used my sewing machine. Would do like 10 at a time. Cut out 10, sew first step on 10, etc. It really went pretty fast.

    Did you use the "burrito" method?
