Pillowcase Ministry doing sew well

Since Pillowcase Ministry was founded in 2011, over 3,700 dresses, 1,500 shorts and 2,700 market bags have been made for children and ladies of impoverished nations. Volunteers display their handmade contributions at the Clarion hotel on 101st Street.

(March 8, 2018) Since its founding in 2011, the Pillowcase Ministry Mission continues to thrive on the Eastern Shore.

Recently, volunteers met to organize materials for kitchen kits. One hundred kitchen kits were assembled, including pot holders, soap, dishcloths, towels, scrubbers and sponges. Young girls from the villages of Panama and Haiti will benefit from these kits.

The Pillowcase Ministry has grown from the initial sundresses made from pillowcases to shorts, market bags, backpacks, shower and feminine kits, and sleep mats. Materials needed for the items are also included in the kits.

Over 3,700 dresses, 1,500 shorts and 2,700 market bags have graced the children and ladies of impoverished nations. Anyone interested in making items or donating to this project should call 443-944-5868.

The next meeting and work session will be on Saturday, April 14 from 10 a.m. to noon at Berlin Library.
