1 row added to the granny square baby blanket….well almost. I was in the middle of slip stitching it on when I was interrupted by a phone call. It will be finished by the time this post is published.
2 blocks quilted on Having a Ball.
I have to rinse out the blue ink. 26 of 36 blocks have been quilted now. I will be moving on to the blue block next to the yellow.
3 tasty Indian Pudding Muffins.
I ate one of the muffins. They are delicious. The rest of the dozen went to my mother in law. As you can tell, I couldn't stay away from baking very long. At least I gave most of them away and froze the rest. This is another one of my long ago clipped recipes that I am working my way through. There was a magazine article years ago with a muffin type from every state.
I also tried a delicious Old-fashioned Chicken Potpie recipe from a 2006 Taste of Home magazine. I would add a link, but it doesn't seem to match any of the recipes currently on the Taste of Home website.
The ribbing has been added to the hat. I watched the tutorial that was given in the original post and it was easy to follow. The pink yarn was in my stash.
I just have to make the ears and snout and embroider the eyes for the polar bear hat.
There has been a whole lot of counting on my granddaughter’s stocking. I have added the little girl's face and more of the Christmas tree.
I included in the photo the piece I am stitching as a hair sample. I’m not totally in love with it, but I want to finish the sample completely before I decide how to adjust it. Any suggestions would be welcome. I am trying to make the hair appear to be a short dark brown/ black bob that is seen from behind.
I am joining Frederique at the Quilting Patch today and Kathy for some Slow Sunday Stitching tomorrow. I hope you take some time to relax with some tea or coffee and pop on over to their sites to see what other bloggers are stitching.
Thanks for stopping by!
