Gone Goose Hunting

Well not really hunting goose, just patterns to make lawn ornament goose clothes. A friend of mine has a lawn ornament Goose that would like for me to make some clothes for her. Annies Attic at one time had a pamplet called "Annie's Attic Goose and Gander Parade Crochet" but now it is out of stock or can not be found *boo hoo* I can't even find some reasonaly prices use sewing patterns for some outfits. So if anyone out here can help me in with this new project of mine I would be so eternally grateful.

FOUND
I would like to thank all that emailed me on where to look for patterns. As many times as I had searched Ebay I had not found it till I was sent the link tonight for "Annie's Attic Goose and Gander Parade Crochet" I now have on order a copy of it (as well as some Native American Fabric that the lady had as well.) Again Thanks to all that helped me out in this search.
(this is the fabric that I have coming in with the goose clothes pattern)

Recycling

Today I had some time to kill before a meeting so I stopped off at our local Thrift store. Was just looking to see what goodies they may have that I could use for crafting. Found a relish tray that looks like it could come from Tupperware or rubbermade but was from Pioneer instead, and then idea hit me...HEY this would work for a sewing caddy. It has 4 latches on it that even if you didnt have them all clicked down it would still keep the lid on good to keep things from falling out. So now I have all my straight pins, bobbins, hook & eyes, and elastic in it.

All tucked in and closed up for the night. :)

Also came away with some encyclopedias for my girls as well. Never can have too many of them around when you have 3 kids.
