I initially learned to crochet as a child, but it became a hobby that I kept revisiting as a young adult. At the time,...

This is it, Friend. This is our final project in our Needle Felting Series! Honestly, we’ve been doing this handicraft for 6 months, so I don’t know why I’m sad about moving on, but I am. This handicraft has been so enjoyable for both my daughter and myself. I would like to strongly encourage any homeschooling family – if you are looking for a handicraft to do with your children, DO THIS!
