The Dressmakers

It has been many years and with great delight that the delegation has shared the beautiful cotton dresses with 2-4 year old girls they meet in South Africa . This is the 10th year of the dressmaking for Sofia M. and, with this year’s work, Sofia has met her ultimate goal of 1,000 sundresses.

This story of a seasoned seamstress inspired Virginia M. of Northfield to join in the work of making sundresses as well, sewing dresses for the past two years. In addition. Virginia has, since 2007, sent with the AIAIA delegation a handmade quilt which is presented to the youngest baby and his/her mother by the youngest delegate. This presentation has become a tradition, a warm gift of love across the miles to a young mother and her newborn baby.
