Sewport Our Troops - Handmade Pillowcases

Sept. 25, 2010 - PRLog -- If you do not know a specific soldier, but would like to contribute a pillowcase:
We will select a brand new pillowcase from our collection, fill the pocket with goodies, include your name as the donor and ship to an appropriate troop or combat support hospital. We mail pillowcases in boxes of 20 to a troop or combat support hospital in need. No shipping charge to you. We pay all bulk mailing costs.

 
If you would like to send a pillowcase to a friend or family member and have the correct address:
You can select the pillowcase of your choice. We will fill the pocket with goodies, include your name as the donor and ship to the person you indicate on the "ship to" form. We will ship overseas or U.S. for only $4.95. We will pay for any excess shipping charges.

All of our pocket pillowcases are made from brand new 100% cotton fabrics and boast three layers of beautiful material. Each fabric is individually selected for softness, design and color combination aesthetic. Prior to sewing, we launder the fabrics with a non-bleach organic soap, and dry without the use of synthetic dryer sheets. The soon to be pillowcase fabrics are hand cut, one at a time, and stitched in a smoke free, pet free location. All inside seams are french seamed or pinked to prevent fraying. Upon completion, each pillowcase is lovingly steam pressed with a light lavender mist, until perfect.

Our pillowcases are unique. Each one features a special pocket.  We tuck surprise goodies, such as gum, hard candies, ice tea or lemonade mix, and granola bars into each pocket. We even add a small handwritten note with your name as the kind benefactor. Once the treats are gone, the recipient can use the pocket to stash photos from home, letters or other cherished mementos. Thanks to your small contribution, soldiers can stay close to their families, even when they are sleeping.

 
Your pillowcase gift is a handmade token of appreciation for the men and women who so willingly fight for our everyday freedoms.
