Mary Bridge Pillowcase Journey Update

At long last, the Mary Bridge Pillowcase Project is coming to an end, and I must say, a very successful end. With your help, the goal that I set was made and now boxes and boxes of pillowcases will begin to make their way to Seattle, Washington.
Here are a few highlights from the journey.




The first 100.
 The goal met!
  You saw my garden through all 4 seasons.
 The bag that held my clothespins.
Packing.
So far, I've folded and packed away 470 pillowcases. I hope to finish today.
In case you are wondering, the shipping cost has been generously donated.
There will be one last chapter to this story as I will be going to Puyallup, Washington the end of February to officially present the pillowcases. Let's see if I can get through the presentation without crying. I doubt it :)
This has truly been one of the sweetest journeys of my life. Thank you for all that so many of you did to make this happen.
