We are excited to announce that we have another daughter waiting for us in China!  She turned 4 in April and we are hoping to travel to meet her and bring her home in the fall or early winter (sooner would be better, but try telling that to the officials!).

Please feel free to visit our main family blog to meet all of us - at http://mcnewfamily.blogspot.com/.

How Close Are We?

Extend the Life of your Favorite Dresses!

Chick-a-Dee LOVED this sundress last summer.  Unfortunately, it is rather short this year!  It fits fine everywhere else - just too short!  I tried the bloomers under it and added a T-shirt and had an instant success!



The bloomers are a light-weight, cool cotton; trimmed with lace.  


I have them in sizes up to 6 for $10 each plus shipping.

Sun Dress with Bloomers


I am offering two darlin' little sun dresses and bloomers in a little different way than I usually do.  Instead of taking orders, I have posted two "ready to go", lovingly handcrafted outfits this time.  $35 plus shipping.  Again, my awesome, talented Mom is donating her time to make them - thanks a kazillion, Mom!



These are both a size 2.  I only put one of them on Chick-a-Dee to model it - they are both brand new dresses.



The bottom one buttons on each shoulder with a yellow button, has yellow rick rack trim around the pockets, on the bloomers and between the yellow and blue fabric on the dress.  The bodice is lined with the contrast yellow fabric.  The top one is similar, but just slips on over the head.

Skirts and Pants Fabric Choices

We have skirts, pants and bloomers! My Mom has graciously (and excitedly, I think!) agreed to help me out in my fundraising by sewing some ADORABLE tiered, twirly skirts and pants with your choice of ruffles or a shaped cuff! All of these are available up to a size 6. My COST is $15 plus shipping for each skirt or pants. My cost for the bloomers is $10 plus shipping. I am asking for a donation of love in addition to my cost to be directly applied to help bring our daughter home from China! For the best possible fit, please send me your sweetie's waist measurement and the desired finished length. dlmcnew@wwestsky.net

Blankets Currently Available

Oversized blankets for your sweetie's (and yours!) cuddling pleasure! These blankets are big enough to tuck in on a toddler bed! They are lovingly crafted for you with a soft flannel on one side and a coordinating ultra-soft minky on the other, or a knit/flannel combination. They are on average 45" x 60", although due to fabric irregularities, the actual measurement may vary slightly from blanket to blanket.

As with all of my items, I list my cost to make the blanket, $25 plus shipping, and ask that you include a donation of love in addition to my cost. All proceeds are helping to bring an orphan, crying out for help, home to her waiting family. dlmcnew@wwestsky.net
