This is only possible because of steemit!
A while, I noticed @gbija here on steemit and the incredible amount of talent that she had. From hand painting fabrics to sewing incredible clothing, our girl @gbija has got it going on. Then I though for moment.... "What if?..."
ONE CRAZY VIDEO
CHECK THESE DRESSES OUT
Seriously, these completely rock! Check out those matching dresses on the @little-peppers! Don't they look incredible? Apparently, my idea paid off!
I figured that if I know a talented person like @gbija who likes to create some incredible clothing, why not have her make some dresses for my ladies? Now this is completely crazy if you actually think about it, but on steemit it actually makes sense.
I mean seriously, who would really hire someone in Lagos, Nigeria to make clothing for his wife and children in the United States, without even taking any measurements? Plus, how would you normally even pay for such a transaction? Well, on steemit, the payment certainly works out pretty well, doesn't it?
Also, as you'll see in the video, @gbija nailed the sizing amazingly and @mama-pepper was blown away! What better way to celebrate my 2nd steemit birthday than to get some custom, handmade clothing for my ladies all the way from Africa? Thanks so much steemit, and a BIG THANKS to @gbija, who I made this custom GIF for some time back.
If you know @gbija, thank her for me!
As always, I'm @papa-pepper and here's the proof:

Am happy they love it , and thank to papa for believe in me to do it. steemit has brought us together

Here I go again, blog through blogging, sincerely I must say that this is amazing, fascinating and incredible. Not only that @gbija is talented but she's really doing Africa proud especially Nigeria my home country. First and foremost, I must really commend @papa-pepper for looking out for such a great talent like this despite the large population of users in the community. It always remind me about the fact that there is still hope for a better days on steemit if you give it your best and don't give up. Just like gbija did...
Long story cut short, I now know while your blog is so fascinating and attractive to readers, some people thinks you put up only pictures of animals and tilled grounds. But what they don't know is that a lot of work goes into those pictures before they're what they become on your blog-post. Thumbs up papa!
The @little-peppers made me shed tears especially the last born. They really love it and that made me happy too. Even @mama-peppers was perplexed how she got to know her measurement. Wonderful skills from her (gbija) You did us proud!
I just want to ask if you can get something for the boy too, feel sorry for him. He cannot have gbija make him some "buba and soro"
