the weather has been amazing this week, so we have taken every opportunity to go to the park. we’ve been three times, i think. and we’re scheduled for trip number four tomorrow with some friends… it’s been so nice to get out of the stupid house of germs and run around and get some sun.
paci clip mayhem
on sunday night, i got the bright idea to make a bunch of pacifier clips for future gifts. i got them cut, ironed, backed with interfacing, serged around the edges and was ready to attach the clips and velcro, when suddenly my sewing machine tension got way out of whack. on monday, i took it […]
