Guys! Thanks so much. I had over 150 offers today! I was gone all day and I had my iPhone so I could see the emails pouring in, but I couldn't read them because we were so busy (organizing the twins room) until I got home. Boy was I surprised! I definitely have enough at this point. LOL! I am going to go through my inbox and pick 2 testers per size. I will also pick 2 people to look over the instructions for me. I don't really know any other way of doing it. THANK YOU ALL SO MUCH! What a great community! I was so touched that so many people were willing to help me out. You are awesome! I wish we could all get together, drink coffee, and get the rest of this pattern finished. Wouldn't that be fun. Oh and some cake.....sour cream pound cake........and we could have some hazelnut creamer for the coffee. OK I'm going to stop and go eat now. LOL! I will let you know by email if you are a tester. I have church tonight so I will probably have to get with you sometime tomorrow. Just for being the sweetest people ever I will share my new pictures of Lily and Iris. Can you believe that they are 7mo old now? Really? Has it been that long? They are PERFECT! xoxox, Samantha

I am very excited about getting this pattern when it is ready. Good luck pattern testers! I am tempted to hop a plane and fly cross country to sit and chat over coffee cake. And yes, they are the cutest twins I have seen!

The twins are adorable. I'm glad you have lots of testers. I would have offered but I've got way too many projects on the go. The dresses look lovely though.

The Handmade Dress Infomercial: Do you suffer from scrached DVD's?

Do your children cry when they can't watch their favorite movie because of irritating scratches? Are you sick of paying good money for movies that are scratched minutes after you take them from the case? Do you often wish that we could just go back to VHS because you could leave them out in the rain, bring them in and use them for a coaster, and then let the baby throw it for fun and it would STILL WORK!? ME TOO ! . We have struggled for years with scratched movies that were no longer watchable, but not anymore! We have finally found the secret formula to rid you of this nasty little problem forever! . Crest Kids Toothpaste! YES, that's what I said! Kids toothpaste! . A few months back I heard some place that toothpaste would take of scratches and I tried it and it didn't work, then the other day out of pure desperation I tried it my way. IT WORKED! So I decided this kind of news could not be kept secret, I have to tell the world! So I

New triple bunks.

Ben designed new bunk beds for the "girl's dorm" and "boy's dorm" in our house. We LOVE them!! We are almost done with all of the work, just a few loose ends left to tie up, but I couldn't wait to show off his handy-work. This is the girl set. We stained them with colored stain and we really like how that turned out. It's almost the color of cranberries. I still need to paint the boards that are attached to the wall. I'm going to paint them the color of the wall so that it looks like the beds are floating. :)  This is the boy set while still under construction. We ordered new bunk mattresses, but they haven't come in yet. I will show you guys pictures when they are completely finished. We stained these green, it looks like the color of bamboo. The kids LOVE these beds! And oh the space we have now! I'll be back soon with finished pictures! xo, Sam If any of you make beds using these plans could you send us a picture? We
