MaryBeth said... Can hardly wait to see your photos (wish I was there to help do the shoot) Ok, I'll wait. Thanks for the honest review of this Loes Hinse pattern. 2/19/06 0:32 AM

And I agree completely with your assessment of LH pattern instructions. But I do like her styles and have bought several of her patterns anyway. :) 2/19/06 4:25 PM
