Dress A Girl Dresses head to Nicaragua

Hi Friends and Family!  Can you come help me at our next Dress A Girl Around the World Sewing and Doll Making Event at Browncroft Community Church!  It's this Thursday, August 18th from 3p-8p.  Bring your sewing machine if you have one and scissors.  We are also in need of pillowcases, wide ribbon, and wide double fold bias tape.  There is a no sew doll project and I need lots of cutters and people at my fashionista table!  If you don't have the above just bring scissors and friends and plan to be blessed!  PS:  Pasta dinner will be served around 5...Come for a girls evening out to make a difference in the world! ~Tara

Please read on for more exciting news about where DAG dresses have gone!........................

My new friend Emily is a Missionary in Nicaragua.  While my mother-in-law was visiting me from Georgia she packed her car with 60 Dress A Girl Dresses and Dolls.  Brought them to Emily in Georgia (her home base).  The following week we received photos of the girls receiving the dresses (see above).                                                   Praise God in how he connects the dots!
