I've got my first 2008 summer show this weekend and I always like to try out a new product each show. Check out my new dresses/jumpers I have added to the line and tell me what you think! They sure are fun to make!!

Oh, they are adorable, Sherri! I wish I knew a little girl to buy one of these for! What price are you offering them for?

I think I'll make them $24. I hope they are a seller because I would love to make more of them! I made sizes 1,2,3,& 4 to start out with.

Yeah, I need to find a little girl for one of these. My granddaughter is 12 going on 21, and my little nephews are the right age, but I think their Dad would have a problem if I tried giving them sundresses!

That sounds like a good price for them, or even two for $40, things like that.

They are really hard to price because of the patchwork. Moda fabric is really expensive, but you can't beat the quality and the results. I paid $9.99 a yard for the fabric, but only the body of the skirt and the straps are really measurable. The rest is patchwork and hard to determine the cost of. I ususally price my things 3X the cost of materials, 1/3 for materials, 1/3 for expenses (gas, price of the booth, show percentage, etc.) and 1/3 for labor, so I think $24 is right in there. This formula has worked out really well for me so far.

I was just talking to my daughter the other day about how there has been a huge "glut" (for lack of a better word!) of boys being born lately! My oldest daughter has three boys, and all of my daughters friends have boys, no girls for any of them. I wonder if that's a cyclic trend. I know statistically the boys have a slight edge in numbers, at least in my circle of friends and relatives, girls are becoming extinct!! Those poor boys in about 16 years.......!

They're absolutely worth it, Sherri. So pretty, and what little girls should look like! My niece, Ava, is probably a 4-5 T now...she's only 3 (will be 4 in December) but she's long legged and broad shouldered.

I sew for all ages of children, but I just stock little kids clothes in my booth and my online store. Everything else is custom order.

I put these dresses on my STF site along with a cute little bee skirt and matching jacket if anyone is interested.
