Some muffins

OK – this counts, right? Some slightly disappointing banana nut muffins. I fiddled with the recipe too much. But the girls gobbled them up. These silicone heart-shaped muffin cups are nice in theory, but when you take the muffin out of the cup, it no longer resembles a heart. Might work with a smooth cupcake and I’ll definitely try to melt some chocolates in them.

But check out the Liberty of London fabric that came today. After contemplating this purchase for months, I bought these for the girls’ spring dresses from purl. I have some dresses made from this fabric that were mine as a child, but this is the first time that I have bought it. It is very thin and delicate and will definitely need a lining and some TLC. I am looking at my growing stack of fabric and realizing that I need to go make something!

New Fabric

It actually snowed here in Atlanta yesterday. Neither of my kids remembered what it looks like and they tried in vain to make a snowman from one inch of snow. After a few minutes of piling up snow mixed with dirt and leaves, my five-year-old asked if she could just eat the carrot we brought outside for the nose.

Meanwhile I’m thinking about spring. Here’s some new fabric I ordered from ReproDepot. The girls are really excited about the Wizard of Oz canvas. Not sure what we’ll make yet.
