Grand Total: 17 pillowcases needed<\/p>\n
This does not count The Young Man. Not sure whether to include him or not. I am thinking of sending him a pillowcase per month when he goes to college. It might be the only time he changes his pillowcase. (EEWWW!).<\/p>\n
I made two last year<\/a> and 7 the other day<\/a>. Total of 9, so I am halfway done.<\/p>\n

<\/a>1 Opposite Snowman Pillowcase<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n Now, the thing is that I made 3 pillowcases for the littlest nephews a few years ago. They should still have theirs, but it somehow seems unfair to leave them out. I was also thinking of giving them the designs above. They are close in age and often play together. I would give the 2 that are the closest in age (different families) the top two and then the littlest nephew the bottom one. I want them to know which are theirs, so I don’t want to duplicate the designs.<\/p>\n
Still if I give those three away when they have already gotten them, I have to make three more.<\/p>\n

<\/a>Halloween Pillowcase<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n I think the Halloween pillowcase needs to go to the youngest niece. It just seems like her and I wonder if she will notice that it is not Christmas. Since I would be giving them out together, she will probably notice and think I am odd. Perhaps she will get two.<\/p>\n

<\/a>Flannel Pillowcase<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n Finally, this one is flannel and nice and cuddly, except for the cuff. It is also fairly staid. Not sure who will get this. Perhaps a spouse?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
I counted up the pillowcases I need as well as the ones I have made and have a good idea of what I need to make before Thanksgiving. Thanksgiving, you ask? I was thinking I would mail these out around Thanksgiving so the niece-phews could use them throughout the Christmas holiday. We’ll see.
