Just the fabric would be perfect! We have a few daycare-leader's that can sew them!

I have fleece and flannel and some other stuff, all with childrens patterns, maybe a few yards of each. Someone gave it to me when the store they owned went out of business and have been looking for someone to put it to good use, it looks like I found them! I will send it via mail, it won't be very heavy, How should I address the package? I will be travelling to Bonaire in April but I would like to get it to you sooner.

It's ok if you bring it, when you come to Bonaire! It saves saves you some costs.

How much fabric do you need? I'll be there in 12 days, am a sewer and have lots of fabric I could spare. (my husband would be thrilled to see me get rid of some...you know how guys can wander around tool stores for hours - put me in a fabric store & I'm in heaven.)

More fabric is very welcome! Of course our goal is to make curtains and pillows for the new afterschool-program-classroom.(This one has 3 big window's)

I will add some measurements, just to get you an idea how much fabric we need. We ofcourse can do the sewing!!

All - I'm suggesting to Patty that sheets will make wonderful curtains. (yard for yard, sheets are the most economical way to buy fabric, plus the bonus is that they are already hemmed/bound on each side, making for a quick sewing job).

Hi Rosanne,

I will do as you suggested, I was afraid of the tax issue but I will keep the value very low as to not burden you.

I've calculated the yardage that would be needed, assuming typical 45" fabric (the typical width for basic - not decorator fabric, that's generally 54-60") and a modest gather and came up with the following:

Patty, great pictures and cute cute kids. It would be great if you could post every once in awhile a list of the things you need at the center. We can point BTers to the thread when they inquire about things needed
