Thank you! I feel like I'm so lazy sometimes! It's good to look back and realize just how much we've done in a year.

ReplyDeleteThank you so much, Lorna <3
DeleteAll of your projects are gorgeous, but your wedding gown is absolutely stunning. I also love the pants.
ReplyDeleteyour attention to the smallest detail always gets me, it's impossible to pick a hands down favorite. you even rolled your stocking correctly! See: you-tube video original recording, "Roll-em Girls, Roll-em, which Aunt of button collector friend recalls vividly.. I have the original sheet music to go with display/program of original flapper garters, an alternate to rolling.
