This past Saturday a few girls and moms from our homeschool group, Classical Conversations, got together to make dresses for little girls in Africa. Catherine Faulkenberry graciously opened her home, provided some jammin coffee, and set out to teach us novices how to make "pillowcase dresses." They are called pillowcase dresses because you can start with a simple pillowcase, a few cuts, some ribbon, and minimal sewing to create an adorable dress. Some of us purchased fabric instead of using pillowcases and it worked just fine. We are looking forward to giving out the dresses from our Classical Conversations group to girls in Kenya next month. We'll take lots of pictures so you can share in the blessing, too. There is an organization dedicated to sending dresses to Africa as a full time gig. It's called Little Dresses for Africa.

"A new command I give you: Love one another. As I have loved you, so you must love one another. By this all men will know that you are my disciples, if you love one another." John 14: 34-35.
