I incorporated some scraps from dresses I made for his girls and it has turned into a fun game of I Spy when we visit our son and grandkids. Fabric scraps a magical I read on Jons blog that you’re not feeling good, hope you are feeling better today!
Oh that is fun Josie. I’m going to make a quilt with the people who live at the mansion, maybe we’ll do it the same way, just keep adding to it till it’s done!
