  1. I like your pink hair!

    I just finished sewing some pillowcases yesterday, for my uncle. I used some Superman fabric. I think that he'll really like them...

  2. Love the pink hair, that's fun!

    And zippers? I'm about to crawl under my sewing desk, I've never worked with zippers because I have this silly fear that I will somehow sew myself to a zipper, should I ever try. That, and I seem to think they're a bit challenging to work with, so good for you! You've got a boatload of zippers on your list!
