I got it, and I am on facebook.  Hopefully I can find their page.  Don't know if you can put a facebook page on here or not.  How about if I friend you and you can send me a PM with the facebook page in it.  Nobody can object to that!

I made a Valentine pillow case for my DGD. She's 4 and gets a big girl pillow to sleep with now. The little one is only 2 and no pillow for her, they really don't give her any pillow yet. So she gets a pretty new shirt from Grandma. These are fun and easy to make.

Thanks Barbara and Rhonnie, these are fun to do. I plan on buying and extra yard from now on to make a case for the next quilts I make.

Bonita - your Grand daughter's pillow case is adorable - I saw it in my email the other day but did't have time to come to tell you how much I liked it - I didn't get my grand kids valentine's pillow cases done this year - just did not have the time - nor energy to make them - I told my DDIL and she was disappointed but I told her when I come up for the birth of Grandson #2 I will bring sewing machine and material to sew up a storm while there - or I hope to... all depends on Mom... the kids will love the next ones when I get them done...

I do try to do them ahead but at the moment my cupboard is barren of everything... things have to get easier soon!

That is my TIP here - if you are making one right now - make 2 - put one in the - For the Future Box - or the Give it Forward box and you will be ready for the next year -

Thanks Thea, this is # 3 so far. I made two for one of my mailbox surprise ladies. I didn't want to post until she gets it. Hope you are feeling a bit better today. My hip is giving me fits off and on the last few days. But nothing what you go through. Have a wonderful Sabbath.

My day started off horribly - as usual but that is the RA ... then I sewed a little bit - not much as I am so so tired... I did do all the prep work for the next part of the paper piecing I have to do... I need to do things that aren't so complicated and i keep doing this to myself - amazes me... but I might sew later tonight - I usually get a good energy burst around the time DH goes to bed and sew for a couple hours... I stay up late cuz I have to go through all that pain that when it finally subsides enough that I can do things I want to do things...teehee...

Can't wait to see the one you sent your mailbox lady.  I could use a lot of this extra stash fabric making pillowcases - if I just could find the energy to get all the work done that I need to do first... I need energy is what I need...I have been rubbing gel into my arms all day - they and my shoulders and upper chest just ache today...

Bonita- very cute pillow case.  I have decided too that I will be making pillowcases to go along with quilts too. They are fast and easy to make, so why not?

Bonita, when I read this I hoped you were talking about me, and you were! I just love them, and I thought the would match well with my Bonnie Hunter quilt top I had just finished. I just had to spread it over my bed and take a picture, you chose the perfect colors!

Thanks Jacy, I'm so glad you liked them. I like how things work out and that they do match pretty good with your quilt. I was just trying to bring a little early Spring to you.
