I've been sewing.
I made banner-decorated tote bags for the Hope Pregnancy Center, using a curtain panel purchased at the thrift store and leftovers from another binge,...
...and I made a sweet little dolly for a young friend of mine (free PDF here).
I've also been cutting.
I used a free template from the generous CindyMindyPindy at Scherenschnitte and a new-in-the-box (and perfectly sized!) frame I found at the thrift store.
But, mostly?
Mostly, I've been missing Me Darlin' Mither.
She was full of grace and she loved my little dolls, and bunting appliqued totes, and whimsical papercuts...
...and me.
