So sorry that I haven't posted in longer than forever! I could come up with the most clichè excuse and say I was supper busy with just getting married and the life, but I'll try not to.
Anyway, in the positive note of things, I just came up with a really cute baby girl hat! I made it in pink, white, and black and it came out amazing!
