cool we are going to fit right in...I only worked here and there while we raised three children, I made 90% of their clothes even my sons shirts. All three can sew, but mom is still asked to. Our motto has always been...Do we need it...or just want it...if it is something that would be just nice to have, we start a jar for it, usually by the time we save for it, we end up saying...lets do something fun with the kids instead...

A staple in our house. I placed an ad for a few items at 1 p.m. one day and had them out the door by 4:30.
