I decided to take some pictures of the girl before she got her hair cut off and donated it. It had gotten pretty long, and she really doesn’t do anything with it at all…or let me do anything with it. I have had this saying and mermaid cut out for some time, so I figured […]
Month: February 2017
Nothing like a long-awaited fabric delivery to de-rail your sewing plans! I’m a big fan of The Lord of the Rings (even read that massive tome…and The Hobbit, too), so when a pre-order came up for different LOTR fabrics I pounced on it.
