I’m getting a head start on birthday crafting this year. I’ve been searching out projects for little boys since we’ll be having one join our family before we know it. I thumbed through my most favorite craft books, and couldn’t put down Liberty Love by Alexia Abegg. I love that book so much, and before long, I...
I love Liberty of London. I love Alexia Abegg’s Michelle, My Belle dress too!

Oh my, oh my, I’m SO in love with this. I keep hearing about this Liberty fabric and imagine what it must feel like, but I’m a “newbie” here, so I can only imagine. I must find a fabric shop that has it so I can see it in person. This is going to be so yummy when it’s done. I can’t wait to see your finished quilt!
Wow – you have been busy. It looks beautiful. Layla will love it. It is wonderful how excited she is about the baby. I can’t believe you will have it ready by her birthday. Can I see it when it is finished?
