38!

I received an email from Jacque owner of Adel Quilting and Dry Goods this week.  She informed me that she had a huge bag of pillowcases that had been dropped off for donation.

Last year Adel Quilting and Dry Goods sponsored the pillowcase drive for the center.  The ones donated this week had been collected last year, but not turned in. No worries, the pillowcases are going to the same place and we can use them now to meet this years goal of 75.

Take a look:
 Here they are all stacked in groups of 5.  That would be a total of 38.
 There are soft and sweet pillowcases like this one.
 And bright and cheerful ones like this.
 And even a few that are manly....those are moose and deer on the cuff of this one.

It is my understanding that Jenny O spear headed this drive at work.        
Some of these pillowcases came from as far away as California.  

Jenny told Jacque that they call their group the Stitchin Clinicians because they are all RN's.  That makes sense to me, nurses giving comfort in many forms.

With this donation we stand at 52 pillowcases donated.  The goal for the year is 75...so we are over 2/3 of the way there!  Of course if we surpass our goal again this year that will be great!

Special thanks to Jenny and the Stitchin Clinicians, your generosity will help provide comfort to someone in the very near future! 

Thank you Adel Quilting and Dry Goods for your continued support also!
