Birthday Party

Yesterday, we helped a friend of our with a birthday party.Quite a few little girls watching Dotty open her presents.
Then we helped the girls each sew a pillow. This is Crystal. Who's doing the work here? We've been giving several of them sewing lessons, so they don't do too bad.

It was a very fun party.

What's in our Window?


There it is. It can be seen from the road, but we haven't checked how well cars going quickly can see them.Here is one of the dresses hanging in the window.

This is a custom dress for a customer. We do adult clothing also, although toddler clothing is our specialty.
