We've ended up having to get quite disciplined about it at my work... Thank you, I didn't want to gloss over the fact that some garments look good initially in a blog post but end up being a disappointment :). I'm sure that happens to everyone...Gabriellenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8611323651828889930.post-50609421601081211852015-01-17T23:28:33.147+11:002015-01-17T23:28:33.147+11:00Yay, congratulations, only 11.5 months to go!

And it makes sense, because as teachers we're told to make sure kids spend lots of time with rectangular fractions (i.e. 1/4 of a bar) instead of dwelling on circular fractions (pizza and pie!) Now I know why! <br />2014 was a good year for you! I always enjoy the different shapes you play around with. Happy 2015!Gillianhttp://crafting-a-rainbow.tumblr.com/noreply@blogger.com
