    Default How's this for a barter deal?

    I have a friend at church who has 2 daughters the same ages as my 2. I made both of her girls crocheted ponchos for Christmas. In the past, I have made one of the girls a dress and a matching dress for her doll. Anyway, the mom talked to me last Weds. night and said she would buy the pattern and fabric to make sun dresses for her girls AND mine if I would sew them! We are talking easy patterns. I am excited! I am willing to give th labor to not have to buy the fabric! LOL!

    I'd be that person buying the fabric too - I'm just not good at sewing. Hmm, maybe I can send you fabric and a pattern in the mail? J/K

    Great deal!

    Do you get to pick the fab for your kiddos or will they all match?

    I wish I had someone to do that with!!

    had a friend with a dd a bit older than my oldest and then one in between my 2. we shared and rotated clothes. but she moved so haven't been able to do that.
