i've been trying for about a year. at least a year. but up until today, i always ended up completely mutilating the hindsection and giving up.
not this time! it took me about 90 minutes, but i did take a break to make coffee and eat anisette cookies that our neighbor, helen the seamstress, brought over.
merry christmas, y'all! i can't tell you how thrilled i am about this small thing. plus i got a fat square stack of fresh paper this morning, so i might try my thumbs at a mantid or a spaceship or something
