Spreading the word

I love this adorable Panda dress and wish I had a better picture of Lily in it. She wore it on Christmas day and had no desire to sit still for my photo shoot. None of my usual bribes worked (M & M's, DOTs, cookie, etc). She was more interested in coloring in her new Color Wonder Cars book.

Back to the adorable Panda dress.......I bought it from Red Thread Stitches.
Robin (the very talented seamstress) does excellent work! She could be selling these in stores. It is just so cute and Lily really likes it as well.
Robin and her family are raising money to bring home Baby Hope from China. They have until January 31st to raise $2900. At that time her file will be sent back to China Center of Adoption Affairs. Once a file is sent back that typically means they are no longer able to be adopted.
Check out her blog to read the story. They were thinking they would have a year to save the money needed for a second adoption.
Well, things happened sooner.....they found their daughter on Christmas Eve. As we all know God has a plan for us that doesn't go by our timing.

The Panda Dress that Lily is wearing along with some other really cute items can be purchased through her blog. The proceeds go towards bringing their daughter home.
I ordered the Panda tote to go with the dress and it is just as cute.

In addition, they are also doing a raffle. It is $1 to enter and you can enter as many times as you would like.

You can access her blog by clicking on the Red Thread Stitches words.
I also have a link to her site on my sidebar.

Thank you Tiffany! Believe it or not those photos of Lily are priceless! I know it doesn't feel like it when they aren't cooperating but sometimes down the road those are the photos we like the best! Bless you for your kind words!

Hugs,
Robin

Oh, Lily is so cute in her panda dress! I have 2 little ones that don't like to cooperate with photos, either. : )

Thanks for helping get the word out about Robin's beautiful work!

Have a great week-end!
