I'm sorry I missed this. I was pretty much off the board all summer and Jayardi just 'told' me about this one. I love Christmas and would have loved to enter this one but I'm still behind on so many things at this point so I guess it worked out for the best. I hope to be up to speed and sewing again by mid-October so will be looking for other challenges during the winter months. Good luck. I can't wait to see the results. | |||

Anyone working on this??? Only 17 days left to finish...  *********************************** “May God give you...For every storm a rainbow, for every tear a smile, for every care a promise and a blessing in each trial.
