Not being weird or starting a second hand household linens shop, but simply asking for sheets, tablecloths, any kind of fabric in good condition, not too heavy or see through, to make dresses for the "Dress A Girl Around The World" project. The project aims to provide children living in abject poverty around the world and who having nothing with clothing, by asking people who can sew to make simple pillow case dresses. Shorts are also made for boys. Link for the project is here if you would like to find out more : http://sewscrumptious.blogspot.co.uk/p/pillowcase-dress-info.html
Here's an example of some I've made :
Fabric and ribbon is expensive, so that is why I am asking for any donations to the cause. Benefit to you, for the cost of postage, you can clear out your cupboards/wardrobes, and feel good knowing it will go to good use. I know it's a car forum, but a really worthy cause, and I have been harassing almost everyone I know - so forgive me
