Refashion & Recycle

The great thing about recycled and refashioned clothing is the way that old clothes, styles and fabrics inspire the designers to create something gorgeous and new.

Yes, I do get migraines. They're related to hormones and thankfully they don't happen every month but sometimes it's a real debilitating kind of thing *ow* I'd buy stock in whoever makes Imitrex!!
Thanks again for this great resource & for making it lots of fun.

Blog posts

Sew & Tell

etc...One of these things is Apps. It just seems like if you have an APP it would allow you to show it without a person having to actually click on it. Personally, I'm not likely to click on a person's app to see what they have. See what I'm saying? Nothing important, just wondering : )

At 2:26pm on October 24, 2009, Priscilla King gave Susan a gift…: Button Crazy!
Thank you!!
