I have nominated you for One Lovely Blog Award and The Very inspiring Blogger Award. http://marlaken.wordpress.com/2013/02/20/the-one-lovely-blog-awardthe-very-inspiring-blogger-award/
boy oh boy this is a lot of great info…i was SO excited to see a list of free patterns…but mostly they seem to be tutorials. it might be helpful to say “list of tutorials, some of which include patterns”.
i’m trying to make a top for a friend’s daughter…who lives about 6000 miles away (literally!), so i can’t use an existing item of clothing…rendering a lot of these tutorials a little less useful.
but thanks, nonetheless! i will still refer to this often.
