In flight entertainment

Most people take a good book with them to occupy themselves during a flight. I take a small sewing project. I took my dragonfly wall hanging with when my husband and I went to Hawaii for our honeymoon. I finished the top during the MANY hours we spent in the air, but haven’t worked on […]
