2013 Charity Pillowcase Challenge
This year’s challenge is to make and donate pillowcases to children in need.
You may simply donate a pillowcase, or enter one in our
contest and win up to $100 in merchandise from The Fabric Place, 123 W. Bridge, Blackfoot!
THE CONTEST:
Interested participants will create and donate one standard size pillowcase. Virtually anything goes (see Judging
Criteria), so be creative and have fun creating pillowcases for children who
are enduring immense struggles.

Pillowcases may be entered at the Eastern Idaho State Fair, Needlecraft Building, between 5:30-6:30p.m. on
Tuesday, September 3.

- Limit one entry per person.
- Participants must be present to enter.
- Entry Fee is $1.

to use materials from The Fabric Place in the construction of your pillowcase.

be awarded at the conclusion of the judging.
