Over 2,100 Beautiful Pillowcase Dresses Made With Love Donated to OGT

Since October of 2019, this remarkable group of ladies from the Rochester, MN area has sewn over 5,000 dresses! These women have used their God-given talents to bring the love of Jesus to girls in need around the world. Over 2,100 of these dresses have been donated to OGT’s Wisconsin Branch in Westfield. Under the leadership of Denise Smalley (pictured in the back row, left side), these talented sewers have met monthly to receive prepared kits to sew dresses. Denise prepares the kits, which contain the fabric, bias tape, and elastic needed to make a dress. Each seamstress then adds her own creativity with the pockets and embellishments. Much of the fabric and supplies have been donated by individuals who have heard about this ministry and have desired to support it. Thrivent Action Teams have supported the project as well. To God be the Glory!
