Thanks, Karen! I only spotted one or two typos but I know it can be annoying to see them so I fixed them for you. 🙂

Did you have a look at Sarvi’s link @mcholley1? Aren’t they cute prints?! @Sarvi you have such good taste in fabric!

Is there anything in particular you little man likes on his shirts? I love a good check shirt and stripes (I made Noah a sketchbook shirt in Cape Ann stripe) are always good.

I do like fun prints so things that would appeal to his…[Read more]
