Planning A 19th Century Creative Space
Hello sweet friends. I hope you all are well. A few weeks back I mentioned that Sweet Guy is giving up his college campus apartment and moving back home.

If the coat looks somewhat familiar to you that is because it is a companion coat to my Coat Of Many Colors. This coat is for the Fashionista. We both smile in that we are still donning mommie and me looks. A Country Girls Coat I found that I wore my patchwork prairie coat quite a bit during the three day event in Simi Valley. Often when I ... View the Post
