1 Million Pillowcase Challenge

August 22, 2014

American Patchwork and Quilting is hosting their One Million Pillowcase Challenge 2014.

I was honored to be asked to participate in their One Million Pillowcase Blog Hop.  Selected designers were asked to choose an APQ pillowcase pattern to either make out of their own fabric collections or other fabrics that inspired them.  All of the pillowcases will be donated to a variety of charities.  I chose pillowcase pattern #43 – Pillowcase with Pyramid Band – and made it with fabrics from my Mineral Forest Collection (printed and distributed by Andover Fabrics).  Click HERE to download different pillowcase patterns.

I am planning on donating my pillowcase to ConKerr Cancer who help children who are fighting cancer.

The One Million Pillowcase 24-Hour Sewathon is happening September 19-20 at numerous venues all over the country.  Click here to see if anyone in your area is hosting the event. Time to get sewing!

From Lori’s Notebook

  • Steve’s Tommy Bahama Quilts

    Steve had a beautiful collection of Tommy Bahama silk shirts, and in his honor, his wife Jackie asked me to use them to make two memorial quilts, one for her, and one for Steve’s daughter Jenna.

  • Ann’s Life of Compassion and Giving

    Ann’s daughter Lindsay approached me some months ago to inquire about having three memorial quilts made in remembrance of her mother – one each for her father Stephen, her sister Kim, and herself.

  • Jason’s Diamonds

    When I create a custom quilt pattern for a client based on the things they share about their loved one, my ideas for the design can sometimes percolate slowly, or they can present themselves in an instant.
