I am so a grown-up!

In an effort to be tidy
and to keep track of the mess
I have made another bucket
With a sweet girl in a dress .


I think it will be useful
and it does look kinda sweet
(Although I'd need another fifty
to really keep things neat)


So now upon the table,
where there is a tiny gap.
I keep my bucket handy
And I fill it full of



There will be some little potty-mouthed (or not) blank girl panels in my shop later today or tomorrow, so you can sew them nicely into whatever project you desire .....and you get to use your own naughty words too if you want.

  5. hehehe, I love your little crap girl. I find the cute kids are always full of bad language, I guess it is because they look so darned adorable they think they can get away with it.

  16. I just thought it my duty to sit back and let those other girls get in first. But look! You've only got 21 comments so far Jodie - see how many more you get when I'm having fun!

    And as for being in my rain-soaked-British face Trash, I'm guessing you're feeling pretty soggy today too - serves you right for being a self-exiled Antipodean!

    Hah!
