So addictive!
Again, I made two leggings from a Minikrea pattern. It’s so much fun! Especially now that I am beginning to master the serger/overlocker more and more. What is nicer than giving someone a handmade gift? And I can make tons of leggings for our own daughter Emma, of course. I have a new addiction!
