If you spend any time on instagram, you’ll know that I love posting little updates every day or so. And while I’ve been able to share some pretty projects in recent weeks, there’s a lot I haven’t been able to show you (as much as I’d love to). But I promise it won’t be long before my secret sewing is revealed!…
