Antelope County 4-Hers Have 'Sew' Much Fun Making Pillows

Needles and thread and a pillow for their head.

4-Hers attended a basic sewing workshop Tuesday in the basement of the Antelope County Courthouse, where children worked on sewing together a patchwork pillow. Carol Green taught the 4-Hers basic sewing skills. 

The event was limited to 10 children, and each were accompanied by an adult. Those who attended were required to provide their own sewing machines, but pillow kits, including the fabric, were sold there. 

Participants included Evelyn Johnson and her mother, Lesley; Kanyon Allemang and her great grandmother, Carol Hanlin; Natalie Burenheide and her mother, Julie Schiltmeyer; Samantha Stuhr and her grandma, Priscilla Blair; Bailey Ahlers and her mother, Amy; Rylee Tillema and her mother, Alyssa; Irelyn Bearinger and her sister, Cassidy; Addyson Jacob and her mother, Megan; Claire Meyer and her grandmother, Rhonda; and Taryn Wingate and her mother, Megan.
