SISTO'S GOAL
1,000 PILLOWCASES
110 DOWN / 900 TO GO


Sisto’s Sewing and Quilting Studio
along with
BERNINA of America

are Local Headquarters for the
National 1 Million Pillowcase Challenge

Sisto’s is proud to be an official participant in the 1 Million Pillowcase Challenge. Together with our customers we will create pillowcases that can provide comfort for a cancer patient, hope for a foster child, encouragement for a battered woman, or beauty for a nursing home resident. BERNINA aims to inspire quilters, sewers and crafters all across the country.

As we collect pillowcases and donate them to local charities, we update the pillowcase counter at www.allpeoplequilt.com/millionpillowcases, which tracks nationwide progress toward the goal of one million pillowcases.


At Sisto’s Sewing and Quilting Studio, located at 1911 North Market Street, anyone in the community is welcome to visit during business hours
and participate in a variety of ways:

  • Pick up a free pillowcase pattern

  • Purchase fabric and notions

  • Schedule a group pillowcase sewing session

  • Schedule time to sew on a BERNINA machine

  • Drop off completed pillowcases that will be donated to the following:
    Hope Alive (See Below)(please make us some kid friendly prints)
    Nursing Home (please make us some elderly friendly prints)

"At first, I didn’t understand, why a pillowcase? How will that make a difference?  After some research, I found out that this pillowcase will be a “bright light” in someone’s dreary day.  This is a way to “visually” lift the spirits of a family trying to get a fresh start.”  ~ Ron Sisto, Owner of Sisto's.

“Quilters and sewers are some of the most generous and creative people
in the world, and we believe the 1 Million Pillowcase Challenge is a
perfect way to match people’s talents with a community’s needs. 
One million is a big number, but I’m confident we’ll reach the goal.”
 
 ~
Martin Favre, president of BERNINA of America.
