This past fall I was asked if I would like to be featured on "The Better Show" for a segment they call "Women Who Inspire." I had the opportunity to travel into NYC to do an interview with Audra Lowe of "The Better Show" about Dress a Girl Around the World. It was lots of fun and I really enjoyed being able to talk about DAG knowing how many people would be able to see what we are doing to help bless little girls with their own pretty pillowcase dress! What a great opportunity to share!

We are always in need of financial help to purchase those things that are not donated such as trimmings, labels, postage and supplies. 100% of your donations are used for Dress a Girl Connecticut as we seek to bless girls worldwide. If you can help us, please click the "DONATE" button on the top right of this page. Help us brighten a little girls Christmas this year.
Dress a Girl Around the World was started in October of 2009 under the notion that every girl should own at least one dress. We transform new & gently used pillowcases into beautiful dresses for little girls. As of today, over 280,000 dresses have been made by volunteers and blessed little girls in 80 countries-including the US. We have people sewing dresses all over the United States, the UK, Canada, China, the Philippines, & Australia. WHAT IF THAT DRESS WAS MADE BY YOU???

Great turnout this weekend and another date planned!
What a great turnout on Saturday! So many new faces! What a week this has been!
I am so pleased that the recent articles and video articles have brought Dress a Girl to so many!
http://www.myrecordjournal.com/following_farrah/dress/ What a wonderful blessing this has been to our ministry! So many have asked how they can help. Obviously, we need pillowcases! Please-nothing see through! We want the girls to have modesty and proper coverage. We also need help sewing and constructing dresses-consider volunteering your time! We can show you how to make the dresses! They are SEW EASY! :)
We also need financial assistance. We buy supplies for dresses, labels and shipping supplies and shipping costs. We estimate that $100 donation will make and ship about 50 dresses. $500 donation will make and ship 250 dresses! Know of a company that may want to give back? Corporate sponsors welcome! Any amount of donation is welcome and 100% will go towards dress supplies and shipping. We want to bless as many girls as possible!
We also want to find local groups going on missions trips that can carry dresses with them and bless girls with their own handmade pillowcase dresses!
Our next sewing date is Saturday, March 31 from 9am-1pm at Cornerstone Church, 1146 Waterbury Road, Cheshire, CT 06410. Watch for more to come about this date!
