Will business be conducted by mail? Will your employees need to be from a certain area of the country (state, city, etc) or are you contracting help by mail and e-mail? Your program sounds interesting. I assume you are in a business involved in doll clothing of some kind.

Yes, most likely, all business will be conducted by mail. I am looking for seamstresses with the talent to sew on a miniature scale. But the actual gowns will not be for dolls. They will be displayed on dress forms.

Please let me know if there is a convenient way for me to view samples of your work. Thank you.
