Soldier Family Kissing Pillows


Hi All,


I am helping out with a project for the Evergreen chapter of EGA in Seattle Washington. They are making Soldier Family Kissing Pillows. A deploying soldier gives the pillow kisses and then leaves it with their children to keep until the parent comes home. I will complete a few more squares like this one and send them off to be finished into pillows!

wow, i just learned of that project lastnight and you already have one done. It came out great Connie. How many are you going to do? I may do 3 or 4. I have a brother in law that was shot in Afghanistan back on May 28th and I now see the importance of pillows and such for loved ones when their family goes off to war. take care,Kimberly
