.....................................

UPDATE: Changing this to ONE pillowcase. Big skirted bonnet ladies and ruffles theme. Colors would be in the colors of your partners choice. These can be machine embriodered, hand embroidery or applique.Sign ups end May 2nd. Partners posted May 3rd. Mailouts by June 6th.

[See above for changes: So I have researched and have seen that this has been done before. I have been participating in swaps so I thought I would head one up. This swap would be a set of standard size pillowcases, hand or machine embroidery or appliqued. Should you like to join, post your preferred colors. Sign ups end May 2nd. Partners posted May 3rd. Mailouts by June 6th.]

Suzanne, Bless your heart! I will be praying for you! I had a kidney stone once and I know what you mean about running to the bathroom, I almost decided to take my pillow and lean it against the wall!
Hugs!

Hi Connie, I can't wait to see mine finished too. Every time I sit down to work on it I start up with kidney stone fragments again. I had some crazy notion that lithotripsy was going to fix everything.....oh noooo. It is just the beginning of the journey. In two weeks I get to go to an endocrinologist because my stones were made of something highly unusual and further testing is needed to find out why.

I think this was a lovely idea! I was just too slow and summer is a hard time for me with my MS. I can't wait to see your pillowcases!

Betty, hello I am almost finished with your pillow case. I am running behind because May was filled with my son graduating from high school three younger kids finishing from the summer and fighting kidney stones. I hope to have it mailed by the end of next week. Sorry for the delay.
Suzanne

My hubby and I have a bed room painted in something called Beehive. Very much the color of this Mary Jane background. ( a mello soft light honey) It has moss green and a red that borders on rust. And blue. I have added a pic. But do not purchase special thread. If you don't have those colors then do cream and tans. I am just excited to do the exchange. My mom loved to embroidery and she taught me.

Welcome, Suzanne. May 2nd is last sign up day. So far just the two of us unless we get some more to sign up! :) Colors are based on what your partner would like her pillowcase to be in. I like to do the hand embroidery on this type of pillowcase design and also do machine embroidery too.

I would like to do this one. I love doing the hand embroidery. I don't do machine embroidery. I can do appliqué .
When do we decide on the colors we like?

Jami, Kingwood is not far from here. There is Porter, then Cleveland, then Shepherd, then Goodrich before you get to Livingston. All along HWY 59. You are in my neck of the woods! :)

Just follow God unquestioningly.

Jami, I typed this into google and came up with a lot of variations. southern belle ruffled embroidered pillowcase pattern

You can also find pre-stamped pillow cases at Walmart and maybe the craft stores.

The tops are embroidered or appliqued.

Here are two examples I found online. The lace can be part of the skirt or edging on the pillow case.

Would love to do this, but cannot at this time. Grandbabies and all....I also joined in a swap once where we made a pillowcase with ruffles and all. We chose colors that would suit our partners and went from there. It was just one pillowcase, though!! I love the embroderied big skirted ladies with the wide bonnets....Smiles

You can never be to kind!
