ReplyDeleteHey Tara-Lynn, I have been reading your blog for a while so it was super nice to get a comment from you! I love all your yarn over stuff, I can't knit a stitch so am constantly in awe of all your pretty work. I am actually only just learning to sew so I'm sure there'll be much yelling and cursing to come! I am hoping though to make a couple different versions of the pleated skirt and then some other things too. Ohh and I wanted to say the cream top you're wearing in the bus stop post is pretty well perfection! So nice.
ReplyDeletewow! if this doesn't make me want to get off my couch and start taking ballet classes, I don't know what will. just lovely!!
