long time no see

Tuesday, October 1, 2013

I graduated, huzzah! Over the summer I have been keeping busy with my new profession, but I also have something up my sleeve – a new design for the site! One of my new talents is working for Boy, so I have been learning how to *properly* build a wordpress site (even if he despises the structure itself). It may be a while, but I do have some crafty projects to share once I get it up!
Also, I can’t believe how many of you have been using my book cover pattern. That makes me so happy inside! Thanks a million:D
