You are very welcome Becky.
There are several lovely ladies that sew for others as they have none of their own, here. So you are not alone!
Please, please share your photos in the flickr group.
I personally find if people pop up 2 or 3 pictures I am more likely to click on them then if they pop up half a dozen as they take so long to load with my…[Read more] -
