Anxious to see this-blue's my favorite color.
Paper Princess--now I see the pockets. Thanks for sharing.
My 9 yo GD and I just sewed a simple quilt with her GGpa's shirts; mostly plaids. We tied it and gave it to my SIL. Naturally made her cry to have this part of her dad with her. Made GD feel good to give of herself too.
