Keepin' up!

This is the end of the 5th week, so here's the 5th design reversed.

That's means I have 10 of the 12 blocks completed for the quilt. Next week will be the last design....cookie and quilt block for the Kitty Cookie Quilt. And I think I've saved the best for last!

Week 5

Time is rollin' on, and here we are at week 5 with the 5th cookie for the Kitty Cookie Quilt.

I don't have a cute name for this one. I'm just calling it 'Smiley Cat' for now, because in the Kingdom of Coco, all the cats are happy. They all have homes and warm beds, good food, and people who love them.

Congratulations!

It's that time of year. I made these cookies for a good friend whose son is graduating from university. I also shipped these by Canada Post half-way across the country. Only the 2nd time I've tried to do this, and things are looking good! There was very little breakage in either package. I could easily see these in pink for a girl graduate, couldn't you?  (Apparently, gender stereotypes persist! even in the Kingdom of Coco!)

The 8th block in the Kitty Cookie Quilt.  Only 4 to go!

I was SO close!

I have this great idea that I'll make dog cookies. Real cookies for dogs with dog-friendly ingredients. (No sugar. No salt. etc.) I'll decorate them, and they will be fabulous. I thought I had it nailed. Last night, before I went to bed, the cookies were dry to the touch, and they looked terrific! This morning, they had cracked like the desert sands, and the colours had faded, but that's OK. I could live with that. However, the 'icing' seems to be flaking right off the cookies. I will have to keep experimenting.
