Default Yoohoo, Mommies!

At least the cost outlay is minor if you already have fabric scraps,
trim, small buttons or yarn.



That's part of the plan here. We have the dolls to fit them to, we have
the patterns, we have the scraps, it costs us zero and may bring in a
few bucks.

As opposed to Webkinz where we'd have to buy the dolls, search for and
pay for the patterns, and then cross our fingers that this tight-fisted
skeptical clientele is going to believe us that their grandkids own
these things they've never heard of and want clothes for them.

At least with the Barbie clothes, if they don't sell it hasn't cost us
anything but time. And, worst comes to worst, we buy a couple $3
Barbies at WalMart, bag up each one with a bunch of outfits, and toss
them in the Toys For Tots bin for the tax deduction.
