Saturday Snippets & Something New

I decided this year that the "Special Baking" is not going to

be reserved for Christmas Day so today I made

some yummy Vanilla Cup Cakes with Vanilla Icing,

Snow (shredded coconut) and Christmas themed Toppers.

Then decided to make some Almond Bread.
Christine posted the recipe on her BLOG
I went the "cheats" way and steamed my Almonds so
that I could get it made in one day and Yummo!
Thank you Christine, I will definitely be making it again :o)

Later in the afternoon I decided that I needed to rectify the problem
of one of my children not having a quilt made by me. 
So the journey of Declyn's Quilt has begun.

"Urban Grunge"

 

 

I am learning pretty quickly that this is not necessarily an easy pattern

 

 

1/4" out  .... arghhh

off now to get friendly with my quick unpick.

Oh, and just to confirm again that the FQ Shop are great with the
fabric in their kits.  In the picture below, the fabric at the top is the "Scraps"
and the Fabric rectangles at the bottom are what I need for the quilt.

Looks like Declyn will be getting a cushion or two as well or maybe a pieced back :o)

Have a great day, Hugs Sharon
