The good news is that the wood will be delivered tomorrow after a long wait and will be installed next week. You can't imagine how I long for this all to be back to normal. It has really affected my sewing output but all good things come to those who wait, right? At least I am hoping it is all worth the wait. <br /><br />Thanks again, everyone, for the bag and hair compliments. You are all so appreciated, whatever your opinions!Bunnyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03672695141031447916noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7871855805349050304.post-33214046447919477142012-11-19T23:54:53.930-05:002012-11-19T23:54:53.930-05:00Bunny, I also think you look quite beautiful in th...Bunny, I also think you look quite beautiful in these outdoor pics with your amazing Koos bag. I was also impressed with your lace light. For another lace look, you could pounce white acrylic paint through an inexpensive piece of lace.
