I have to be honest, this project was a whole lot more fun to start than it has been to finish. It’s really fun to start, though. Like, really fun. All you need are strips of fabric and batting 2.5 inches wide. Then you fold them into quarters and sew down the middle to form long fabric ropes. Once you …
Beach Baby {Layout}
