They are the best tool

Isn’t it? I want the bunny print from the catalogue also but Chloe was not in the mood to shop so, next time.

Leggings made and another hopscotch from the jegging scraps
I was able to cut a late lunch and a continental blouse from the linen
While doing some sorting I found some cut Capri pants and a black skirt from when the twins were babies

You Aussies are more crafty per capita than most other countries. You’re our second largest market, by far. The volume we sell into NZ and Singapore is tiny compared to what we do in Australia. You always have to assume the complaint rate for things like this is low (2-5%). We sell enough into Australia for that to become a real number and to…[Read more]
