Liberty progress...

Just to prove I have not been lost to the dark side, ie. become a complete couch potato with no crafty itches to scratch, I have finished basting one set of the mini-Liberty hexies.

They seem to have come up smaller than shown on Leila's tutorial, the sides are definitely 1/2", so I am not sure what I did there, but I have a cunning plan.


I also received some waxed cotton today, ordered the minute we got home...  


Twin Two, having lost her precious friendship bracelet on the journey home from Menorca, is in serious need of a replacement; so good old mummy needs to quickly re-acquaint herself with her 'time spent working in the South of France skills' pronto!

That's my Bank Holiday sorted!

  1. Friendship bracelets seem to go in phases here. We are in a phase right now but they can now make their own. Beats how many times I have sat on the floor with the thread ends masking taped to the coffee table knotting those coloured threads together, again and again!

  3. Hexies look great. I too haven't made a friendship bracelet in years so not sure I could remember. I know my niece made me learn how to make scoobies when she was at infant school and I can't remember how to do that either now lol

  6. The hexies are cute, the sides will always be the same size as the template so if you cut a 1/2 inch side template then the hexies will that size too. I love hexies and have finally finished a craft bag for myself made out of them having done 2 already for friends.
