Posy Belt Reviewed by Treena Schultz on 2008-07-09 *****
I made this today, July 9,2008, for my niece for her birthday. It turned out really cute and I know that she will enjoy it for years to come. I enjoy making gifts as I take great pride and joy in making things. The instructions are easy to follow :)
