What’s Black and White and Sewn Together???
Grace's new "dress shirt" of course! It's actually made from strips of the most delicious velvet ribbon from The Ribbon Retreat and some of Riley Blake's neon pink cotton.

So when we were asked about organizing a sewing room for SNAP we jumped at ... View the Post

(To the point that I was vacuuming the floors, rugs, couches, my pants, whatever all over the hotel instead of going to class with Elizabeth...and then was so loud with all my vacuuming they had to shut the doors to the classrooms to keep all my noise out. True Story.) *Then one of the Shark ladies told me that I could enter a ... View the Post
