Ok I bought this christening gown about 2 years ago at a church rummage sale for 50 cents and I have never used it, I keep thinking about getting rid of it ,but the pack rat in me won't allow it.

So I thought it would be kind of fun to raffle it off on here, it will be of course no cost to you, I will even cover the shipping, which I will just put it in a big envelope and send it on the cheap.

It is really pretty and in great shape, on the picture it looks like there is a pink spot on it, nope that is just my camara messing up. If you are interested in doing this just post your name and I will copy them and put them in a box and draw one out, lets say, this Sunday I will announce the winner.

The only thing I ask, is that when you make a bear and use it, you post a picture , because I know someone can really do something fun with it.

I am so excited , because this thing has been driving me crazy, for the past 2 years I keep seeing it and thinking "man I have got to use this" but then I never do and I feel guilty, but this way I can see someone else have fun with it.
it looks like the size that would fit a newborn, so I think it would be perfect for a bear.

Ooohhh, me, too, Jodi. For 50 cents!!! No wonder you can't throw it out, but are you sure you won't be sorry when you give it away? You'll probably come up with just the right idea as soon as you drop it in the mail.

Ohhhhhhh Chocolate, yummmmmmmmmmmm,  :crackup:
I know I couldn't believe it when I saw it , it looks hand made and so sweet. I couldn't  pass it up,  I figure after 2 years , if I haven't used it yet, I am never going to. And like I said, I kept seeing it in my workroom,  reminding me I haven't used it, which completely bugged me.

  I run so hot and cold on making bears, sometimes I see a fur and buy it and rush home and finish a bear in a night, then other times I will buy fur and it just sits, I have fur I have never used that dates back to when I first started making bears. I am a serious pack rat and I will be thrilled to see this put to good use.

Hi Louise, you are a sweetheart, , I am just excited to see what someone comes up with by using this. I thought it was adorable, but I just don't make the kind of bears that I think this dress deserves. I can tell it was made with love and I bet it will look great on it's new owners bear.

Hello Jodi,

As you know I don't make bears, but I would love to be included in this because if I am so lucky as to win the raffle I would commission someone to make me a bear for the dress.

Hugs,

Julie
