My mom thought it sounded like fun and of course went above and beyond on her design (which you can download here). I …
Spoon Doll Pattern

Is That Strange?
Everyone has a secret wish list. You know, the things that you can’t justifying splurging on when there are groceries to be bought and electric bills to be paid, but they still tug gently on your heart.
