This morning Neil suggested that I check out some garage sales for interesting things to sew or dye. Sounded like a good idea to me, so off I went. I only hit 5 sales and didn’t have any luck finding anything of interest until the last place. There on the ground, in a little ziplock […]

I can’t believe I’m actually thinking of making myself an apron, or buying one from some talented Etsyan.
