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.

A while back when I was on bedrest and not at all used to the idea of being still, I got the urge to make hexies. Its not something that had really peaked my interest before, but I needed some good sit-on-your-butt crafting activities. I also knew that the hexies had to be Liberty. I’ve...

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.
