I Surrender!


I came home from work with plans to cut out and sew one more item on my Christmas gift list. I got as far as picking out the fabrics and cutting them out. I even started sewing and did one set of buttonholes before I surrendered.

Well, for those of you still stitching through your own Christmas gift list, I wish you happy sewing.
