    We have to start decorating too! But Hanna’s idea ofdecorating is to take down everything Amelie puts up. That leads to worldwar 3 in this household!

    I am thinking of purchasing the book – Pretty Little Patchwork – am wondering if it is easy to follow and has worthwhile projects in it – am only new to this stuff and would love some feedback on it – have purchased a couple of dodgy ones!!!!
