I will see if I can find a picture for you.

Hugo managed to get some rice cereal into trixie so she slept all evening instead of me feeding all evening
I got the trousers and skirt made and a Continental blouse made up to setting in the sleevesI prewashed some lawn to make another trial run for husbands Liberty shirt. He has lost weight so the last one is too baggy now
