Made By Humans
Over the past few weeks while I was finishing up writing my book (!), I saw all the beautiful colors on the trees and was afraid I was going to miss fall entirely. I did miss a lot of the good weather (though I did take some time to enjoy, even in the busiest parts, […]
As I mentioned in my post yesterday about the Bit’s Halloween costume, I learned a new trick for making tutus that made the process of making this particularly tutu a little quicker and easier than it usually is.
