I hope you have a delightful time chatting about many things. The sewing machines made me smile and remembering my Mom, as she sewed all my clothes growing up. She even sewed my wedding dress. She was a fantastic seamstress. <br /><br />Have a nice week ahead, and enjoy your visit with your friend.<br /><br />Love,<br />~SheriRed Rose Alleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02685747099912989862noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1579555037165364084.post-18665928264392730682013-11-10T18:07:46.988-08:002013-11-10T18:07:46.988-08:00Thank you Shane, I am so looking forward to the me...Thank you Shane, I am so looking forward to the meet up, my very first one in blogland.
