I am looking for some patterns for me and my girls. We need new summer clothes desperatly and I am unable to pay new prices for patterns or clothes. Looking for shorts outfits or dresses in kids sizes 5 and 7 and misses 18. Will pay for them or trade somthing for them. Just let me know what you are looking for and I will do my best. I am an avid seamstress so I have somethings I would be willing to trade. some knitting things, some crossstich stuff, ect... Thank you for your help. Kristean

I think I have some Kristean that are in the Goodwill box, so I can just send them to you! If you e-mail me your address, I'll get them out to you this week! Hope that helps. Cara

IF you have a JoAnn's near you, they have sales with 99 cent patterns. If you're not on their mailing list, the sale flyer is good. It almost always has 50% off one item.

Kristean,

I am a seamstress and have at present 6 large boxes of patterns. Are you looking for a specific brand (simp, McCalls, Butrick, etc...)and are you looking for fancy or play clothes. I would be more than willing to share with you provided you could pay shipping, which shouldn't be much. Let me know how many of each you would like.

God Bless

Kristean, I don't have a pattern for you, but I have a tip. I buy patterns that will fit a range of sizes, then trace the sizes I need onto tissue paper. That way I preserve the original pattern and can use it for years. You may already do this, but just thought I'd pass it on. Oh, and I always save tissue paper at Christmas time so that I'll have plenty.
