Yesterday morning I cut 3 more pieces from one more fabric for the 6" finished squares and took a daylight photo from my computer chair. It is looking better with more of the dark squares removed.
I made 2 batches of Chex mix in the afternoon and in the evening my first batch of spritz. Now I need to make the chocolate ones.
I had some questions yesterday about the Hamilton Beach cookie press I showed on my post. I also have 2 parts to a Proctor-Silex cookie press with extras in the second box. I'm not sure which one came first. One company bought out the other and after doing a search I find that most of the ones available now are on e-bay, some new, some used. It looks like the newer style with a push down handle is the way they are going now. I have had mine for a long time and I hope it lasts a few more years.
I saw a cookie press that works on batteries eliminating some of the need to push, I thought about getting one but I make so many cookies as it is I thought maybe I better pass on it.
ReplyDeleteThe quilt top is looking good.
Both the quilting and the culinary producations look delicious!
ReplyDeleteReplacing just your 3 dark squares gives this piece a cheerful look to it. I too like it way better.
ReplyDeleteYour production of all the Christmas cookies you has been a feat in itself. Your family is in for a wonderful Christmas treat !

I luv it!
ReplyDeleteIt's beginning to look a lot like Christmas around your home. I'm sure the smells coming from the oven are amazing. As always love your quilt you must quilt in your sleep to be as prolific as you are . . . sewing one right after the other. I don't think that your sewing machine ever has time to cool down, LOL.
ReplyDeleteMerry Christmas,
Connie :)
