They are familiar with this particular pillow case pattern, although I don't have them put on the extra trim strip. It that ok?

This is an awesome project for them, and they have made these pillow cases before so they are familiar with the technique. I do have a question though...do they have to be made with the decorative trim strip? I usually have the kids just make the main body with the decorative 4' border. We'd love to help you reach your goal!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8691319772208152166.post-30290045794349644482013-03-27T08:33:21.236-05:002013-03-27T08:33:21.236-05:00Hi Rhonda, I live in Belgium (Europe) and I am wil...Hi Rhonda, I live in Belgium (Europe) and I am willing to take part in this wonderful project. I have two questions though:<br /><br />- instead of sewing the trim and accent part (1 - 1O"x 40" piece "trim" and 1 - 2" X 40" piece of fabric "accent", would it be possible to have just one piece of 12" x 40" - accent and trim in one piece ?<br /><br />- did I understand it right and are we supposed to send the pillowcasees to the USA?<br /><br />Thanks a lot!<br /><br />france.parijs@gmail.comAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8691319772208152166.post-25834497359359337962013-03-24T11:28:02.709-05:002013-03-24T11:28:02.709-05:00Thanks Dora:) the fabrics are from everywhere!

I was a little apart from the task of commenting on other blogs sewistas because all available time was to finish my coat fuchsia and Sew Along, but now I'm back to this beautiful world and spreading love meeting you .... so to compensate for all this time I did not comment on your blog I'm going to participate in this wonderful project to make pillowcases ... I will send an email to you within a few hours.
