Frances Newlin

Frances is a senior citizen who has always enjoyed sewing and crafting and loves making things for people. When she discovered the children’s ward of the Savannah Memorial Hospital in Savannah, Georgia she decided to make pillows for the children in the hospital. She makes 15″ pillows out of cotton character fabrics with carrying strap out of vinyl so the children can write their name on it, for that personal touch. She usually sews a dozen at a time and takes them directly to the hospital to be distributed.

Frances says “I have a heart for the children that are ill and hope that these pillows will ease some of the stress and heartache for them while they are in the hospital.”
