I have long loved the Sew House Seven Toaster Sweater. When Simplicity came out with a similar version, I bought it during a sale at JoAnn Fabrics. Then months went by and I never had a chance to sew it. Now that the kids are back in school, I set to work. I had two … Continue reading Toaster Sweater
