While I have a small one in the basement for sewing and cutting, it it too dark to do much detailed work and I am constantly leaving little piles of works in progress for people to trip over all over the main floor. I dream of a light filled space that I can share with the girls now that their desire to craft seems to have no end. mama melishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13924338554288814056noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7825862861569609473.post-69268443974851873022013-04-12T09:37:23.117-04:002013-04-12T09:37:23.117-04:00Oh please!

Separated at birth, indeed. If I win (please please), I would definitely choose a work of art from Alyce or Shira. Shira has just started drawing faces, the same face over and over again. I'd probably choose that.<br /><br />What a great blog birthday week!Daniellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16432840953994166762noreply@blogger.com
