Welcome to the fastest Sofiona sew thus far!! We are starting to be known as "clean, but not quick" and I'm totally good with that! But I also know that people want a quick make and it's been a regular conversation around Sofiona headquarters that we need to keep the quick sews in mind.

Now I'm SO excited to finally have this version, the Rhubarb, also available and it is everything I dreamed of!

Starbursts and Nerds!!
Well!! This is quite the adventure! Not only has my imagination been challenged in my designing and sewing, but the emotions! I'm full in with all of those.
