Hey friend!!

It's December! 2019 is drawing to a close. Did you enjoy your year?

My husband and I just closed a very difficult chapter in our year. We moved! So now I'm living in boxes but also finally have peace in our home. Anyone who says monsters aren't real never met our old neighbors!

So that's why this recap is going to be exceptionally short (and a few days late). There were only 3 posts this last month: Scroll down for big news!
Interested in joining Sew My Style in 2020?

This online sewing challenge has changed a little bit, but everything you need to know is online at Sew My Style 2020.
