Today while on my lunch break at work, i did my regular browsing of craft sites and blogs, and i came across a blog called Sew Delightful and was amazed at what i saw... They make dresses, scarves, pjs for girls in need all over the world-- so far they have donated 12,000 dresses to 35 countries all over the world, and this year they hope to reach a goal of 50,000 dresses!
They use a simple but lovely pillowcase dress pattern, that can be adorned with a pocket, a little lace or a vintage handkerchief to make the dresses a little more unique!
Want to help?? There are so many ways...
You could:
~ Sew with a group or on your own
~ You don't sew? Come to a group and cut or press dresses
~ Start a sewing group in your area
~ Donate Pillowcases
~ Donate elastic, trim and thread
~ Donate Fabric
~ Share Sew Delightful and the Dress A Girl Around the World blog with others
~ Spread the word about Dress A Girl Around the World
~ Sponsor a lady in need through Hope4Women International (giving her training and a new life)
~ Go and deliver dresses
Imagine a World where every little girl owned at least one dress
Thanks so much for sharing about Dress A Girl Around the World!!
