I’m becoming an aunt again (!!!), and the baby news has me very busy in the craft room. I recently spent some time making gifts for my soon-to-be nephew, including a “taggie.” Or, “lovey,” you might call it. You know, the little square of fabric with tags and crinkles inside? It was fun and easy, […]
