I know this is a departure from my usual posts about sewing and cutting paper, but I feel like I spend most of my life either planning for or recovering from a flight with Allie, and I’ve gotten pretty good at it, if I do say so myself. I get a fair number of questions from friends about flying with …
On The Road Again
My apologies. The Inky Linky is on hiatus this week while I pack for a whirlwind weekend back east.

But I originally planned to do a post on just assembling the squares, so here it is. I’ve been wanting to learn how to do half square …
