boulant family

This project was super intimidating when I started but it was fun once I got started. I haven't sewn anything in a while. It felt so good to get back into it! And my sister Carrie was gracious enough to accept it as her birthday present!

Mike made this advent calender for my sister Val! Isn't it darling? Love it! I found a tall tree at hobby lobby that would be perfect for a second tree in the house. So Mike made me this one! So fun!
