This picture is what I’m trying to sew and this is what my blouse looks like right now

Mixtape Quilt Top, originally uploaded by Shear Delight.
I travel quite frequently for work and occasionally I have to travel over weekends. Officially my company has no policy to give me back that time but since I work from home when I’m not traveling I just take it when my schedule will allow it. Sunday I’ll [...]
