I really like your blouse and you have a perfect fit with your lovely shorts. My November Burda arrived late too; later than usual so hopefully December will be faster. There are some reviews out on the December issue and BurdaStyle has some December patterns ready to download if that helps you prepare for your next project. Good luck; you will probably need it with the lead up to Christmas.Marjoriehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09491386020542209322noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5916038188571690726.post-70729889241966702852013-12-02T23:14:17.637+11:002013-12-02T23:14:17.637+11:00Well done on your items.
