It Looks Like We Need Hazmat
No, not really. No hazardous materials here. Just quilts, fabric and more fabric. Look, I have really reduced the number of boxes! Lots of unpacking going on here. And lots of evaluating. Do I really need to keep this if it doesn't make my heart sing? I think there will be some purging going on…

Interesting Product and Give Away

A New Project
