It has been a good day
You might remember one of my latest thrift store finds. I just love it and am planning to have it on the dessert table for Thanksgiving. I think I am going to put some cookies in it. I just have to figure out what kind of liner I want to put in the bottom of the baskets. Any ideas?
I decided to make some of the cookies today since I had some free time. I made some pecan tarts, snowballs and some with andres mint chips.
Yummmmmmm. I am also planning on making a black cherry cheesecake, coconut macaroon brownies and of course, pumpkin pie.
In between baking and picking up the house I had to take a look at the new Country Sampler.
I thought I would show some of my progress on the rug. I am enjoying the border alot more than I thought I would. In the grass and sky areas I did it in chucks, the border I am trying to do it more spread out. I don't know if that makes any sense.... I like the borders this way.

Love the rug, great colors!!
ReplyDeleteYou are a fast hooker. You have a lot accomplished on that rug. Looking good.
ReplyDeleteYou could put doilies or even some of that shredded natural paper --like a nest. That would be cute. Your rug is wonderful and I want some cookies. Pecan tarts are my favorite!
