Hello Ms.Genie,
ReplyDeleteThank you for the frog pattern, it is different and seems real easy to make .
I called Mrs. Carano to tell her the frog fabric was sold at two fabric stores - Hancock fabrics - Cloth World, I picked up a couple of yards and made one within a couple of hours , they can be made quicker after we cut out the patterns.
I asked Mrs. Carano could I thank you and she said of course because she know you would like that .
Thank you Ms. Genie

Thankyou Della.
ReplyDeleteI liked the frog too.He's kind of cute. It was terrific that you found the exact right fabric. I will continue my search for crafts that seem right for Nanook's Society.
Thanks again for the encouragement
