PRINTED DOLL FABRIC + tutorial!
I'm so excited to share this project that I've been working on for the last month or so! Printed doll fabric! This fabric is soooo fun!

I'm glad so many of you found the tour helpful as you think about your own sewing space.

I have had some of my tables for 3+ years and other stuff is brand new. So here it is! White Tables: Linmon (2 sizes) with Adils ...Continue Reading
