Dresses for Bolivia- Last Call

I got several more packages this past week. Thank you!!

Deb, Terry, Connie....
Linda and Kevin. 
You have no idea how wonderful these dresses are! Thank you! 

What are the chances I'd get two packages from different people and different states on the same day and one of the dresses in each package used the same fabric?!? Cool, huh?
I did a test, putting 60 dresses in a space bag. I sucked the air out and it weighed in at 15 pounds. I have 2 friends coming over next week to help me sort the sizes and help me get them packaged. If you have dresses to send, please send them this week!
 I'll have a final count next week as well.
Happy Monday!

    It is amazing how much you can fit in those space bags and squash them down.
    So excited about the response you have had to your call for dresses. Quilters are the best!

    The dresses are wonderful and the ladybugs are so cute. I need to hone my sewing skills, seems I am having trouble getting sizes right lately so I need to practice again and then I can start doing things for others. My brain seems to be on hold lately.
