I'll still host my FREE Embellishment Mini-Workshop from home, tonight at 6. Which forces me to straighten up my sewing room... sooo, I'd better get started NOW πŸ˜œβœ‚οΈπŸ§΅.

Looks like canceling plans due to weather has become a real thing now. Everyone, please be careful. I hope you've got your snacks lined up. I feel a batch of almond cookies coming on...

See you next week!

UPDATE... so, Leslie and Ron stopped by this afternoon and I invited them to vote on the Blazer Issue... after high level deliberations, Leslie suggested this PRE-PATCHWORKED piece from Ghana, and unfortunately, all previous votes are now null and void πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚.
