The Textiles class is starting the year with their 1st Annual Barbie Design contest. Class members have taken on roles as fashion designers, and have drawn up some incredible outfits. Now they have to re-create their designs and dress their dolls. With 49 students in Textiles this year, rounding up that many dolls has been a real challenge! Believe it or not, we have enough Barbies ... but we are in need of 3 more Ken dolls. If anyone out there has a Ken we can borrow for a week or so, it would be greatly appreciated. Just text Mrs. Johnson at (308) 528-0161. THANKS!
