I have always said that my projects (and essays) are "incubating." Sometimes that time is difficult -- I thrash about and feel guilty and horrible -- but there's no sense taking a cake out of the oven until it's finished.Malissahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06089616225966759897noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7016674207999094300.post-45564228910172992072009-05-17T07:10:00.000-07:002009-05-17T07:10:00.000-07:00Oh, Allie, you've done it again!

Yet right away (when I clicked to enlarge), I loved butterflies your added. And, of course, the Achillea is adorable! I've got to get to Mokuba and order some of that rayon ric rac. The two sizes and colors of blue are nicer than if they were the same. More lushness? Yep... You're doing it!
