I also read your cleansing pallette post. Carolyn you are one of the reasons I came back to sewing you inspired me so much. I truly enjoy your blog and look forward to whatever you have to say. And when you post pictures of what you made, well, who needs a fashion magazine we have our own plus sized model in her own magazine. I got a new sewing machine for Christmas a big one with all the bells and whistles and though many won't agree Singer is coming back up in the world so I will continue to read your blog to be inspired and use this machine, thanks!
