Happy New Year
Christmas is over and I'm awaiting the New Year with optimism! This month
has tried my patience with a health issue. After a fall earlier in the
month, the wound became infected and I've had to slow down to almost a
standstill. Sitting in my recliner with the cats taking turns keeping me
warm has filled my days, It is almost well and I'm starting to feel
like getting into "action" again.
I have wanted to keep a blog of my recent projects, maybe the new year will spur me on to keep up with this project.
I made 12 market bags for gifts, lots of fun novelty fabric with colored
screen. Hope my grand kids will use them and help keep the planet
green. I know they will use the gift cards in the pocket.
I was able to make a few goodies for Christmas. My favorite almond roca
did not get hard, still tastes good but not quite the same as crunchy.
Also made a very good patch of fudge, it's still hidden in the frig for
later. The annual Whiskey fruit cookies were also a big hit this year.
I've been making those cookies for more than 50 years, that's quite a
tradition.
I also made a cute little "Bendy snake" for Ben and Johnathan, found this cute pattern on Pinterest.
