Friday means Sewing for Donation
After just a few little touches on the ballerina doll all my sewing today is for donation. I am down to almost no batting but I do have a bag of polyester fiberfill so I will be working on dolls and little animals to donate. With Christmas coming very soon I’m sure they will come […]
