How you’re making a difference


Jennifer McCord, who teaches classes in fabric and yarn crafts, has


discovered that making pillowcases is a great beginner project for


her 10- to 12-year-old students. The students pick their own fabric


combinations and make two pillowcases in opposite colorways, one to


keep and one to share. Recently one beginner class chose to donate its


17 pillowcases to the pediatric ward of Sierra Vista Regional Medical


Center in San Luis Obispo, California.
