Something I like...

When I was shopping in Williamsburg I found this lovely Christmas ornament!  Made in Richmond...love it!

Baking...

Believe it or not this is my favorite cookbook!  Every year I make two of the cookie recipes for Christmas.  One cookie is a gingerbread and the other is Pepparkakor (translated gingerbread!)  It's a lovely little spice cookie you can't stop eating!!!  I actually make the two cookie recipes twice!  (no matter how I plan it, cookie monster shows up and leaves me with no cookies!)  So either today or tomorrow round two of cookie making!

Hexagons:Tutorial

I love making hexies, and have found this to be the fastest, easiest way to crank these suckers out! I use a method where I don't sew the fabric directly on the paper. It's faster and you don't have to take all of those stitches out!

　



  
What I Do...

I print my hexies on card stock

I cut a hole in the center of each hexie.

I use the same thread color to make the hexies as I do to stitch them together.

 

A lovely card stock hexie;)

The shape of the hole doesn't matter...a triangle is fastest for me. 

 

Pinning....two pins work great for bigger hexies...one is fine for smaller.


 

Start in a corner and stitch the corner down firmly. 

*do not stitch to paper!*

 

Two stitches (using dark thread for photos;)

 

All finished!!!!



That's how I do it!
