Day 19 Giveaway: Pillowcase from Sarah & Joyce

Joyce and Sarah are a mother-daughter blogging/sewing team. Sarah is a young adult who has Down syndrome and Joyce, is her mother who also blogs at JEllen's House of Fabrics.

They are both business-savvy ladies who opened their own quilting store in which Sarah works in and helps run the store.

When Joyce started teaching Sarah sewing she decided to start with pillowcases. Soon after that she came across the 1 Million Pillowcase Challenge. When Joyce read this part about the challenge, "A pillowcase can provide comfort for a cancer patient..." Sarah immediately thought of her friend, Kristen (who later, sadly, passed away from cancer.) They hosted a kick-off party at the quilting store and collected pillowcases which were donated to a local hospital.

Sarah and Joyce are graciously donating one of their pillowcases; the winner will be able to pick a design from a host of different categories.
