I have been wanting to
play around with some felt and make a needle book. I had bought some felt a month ago and then it sat in a drawer. Then
Terri over at Terri's Notebook had made a really adorable one shaped as a hexagon!! Too sweet to pass it up so I finally buckled down and tried my hand at hexies. Not addicted
quite yet, but they are pretty simple. The vintage fabric "Holly Hobby" I used wasn't very thick so it was a
little tedious, but in the end it turned out
just fine;) Instead of the "d" hook the
tutorial called for I used some cute ribbon to dress it up some more. Creativity satisfied and another useful item to marvel away at every day!!

that is very cute! love your addition of the ribbon. I loved Holly Hobbie when I was a little girl, so I would love to find some vintage prints like this. I even brought my little Holly Hobbie doll with me to Amanda Jean's house. Silly, I know!
Your needlebook turned out cute! What a great idea!!
I WANT ONE TOO!!!! :)
