This round of pant-making went much quicker. Cut out and sewn in about 15 minutes. Of course, there are only 5 seams. lol.

I will have to wait til tomorrow to cut up more of Rory's … [Read more...]

Ugh, I'm making myself sick right now by eating all my Christmas candy. Well, not ALL of it, but an entire Lindt Snowman has now met his demise. Poor little guy never had a chance.
