how it is that this little elfy thing came from me I will never know! She sings and says the best little things, with facial expressions that will make the grumpiest soul smile.

And another item has been sweetly made and placed in my fledgling shop. I am having a lot of fun thinking and making. I only worry every now and then whether it's worth it, that it might just take too much time, or that I just can't compete with all the other etsy girls. Generally my thoughts are...I have a sewing machine, I have some beautiful fabric collected, I have a camera, and I know where the post office is. So with all this going for me, I will simply try.
