Hot Chocolate Spoons

Hello Peeps,


Miss H and her friend Miss R decided to make some hot chocolate spoons for some easy Christmas gifts. They found the idea on Pinterest.


First, they stamped words onto the ends of the sticks.
I stayed out of the way for this part - don't want black ink on my precious hooves!


Then it was into production time. Mmmmm... melted chocolate and crushed candy canes... my favourite!


Once all the spoons were done Miss H and Miss R wrapped them in cellophane.
Err... do we have to wrap them all? Could we eat a few instead..?



They look sooooo yummy! I hope Miss H is going to give me some to stir into my Christmas hot chocolate.


Oooh... I just had to show you this one. Miss R got all fancy and made it swirly!

Pallet Christmas Tree

Hello Peeps,

The Mother saw on Pinterest a pallet board tree and decided to give it a go.


So the Boss found her a pallet.


And I stirred the tin of paint. Uh, I hope I don't fall in...


After the Mother painted the tree, it was time to nail some decorations to the pallet.


Here is just a few of the decorations...


...and TADA! Isn't it coolio? The Mother wrapped lights around it.


Look at it lit up at night.

Hello Peeps,
 
Miss H and her friend, Miss S, entered a cake competition at Miss S's church. The cakes were then auctioned off to raise funds for the youth group to go to camp.



Here is their entry.
 
 
Isn't this the cutest pink snowman family?!


Can you hear them singing Christmas carols? Heehee!

 
I think this tiny teddy has "borrowed" Santa's sleigh...
 

... and these ones are on the present sack. Naughty teddies!
 
And guess what! Miss H and Miss S won first place! YAY!!!

Boxy Pouch Reveal

Hello Peeps,

Today is the big reveal! The Mother and Miss H made eighteen pouches in total! 18!!!



These are the pouches the Mother made. She LURVED making them.


Most of the Mother's are quilted with zigzag stitch in wavy lines



And the rest are in straight stitch wavy lines.



She also added a cute little label on this pouch.



Miss H made these pouches. She also LURVED making them! Heehee.



Miss H had fun quilting all of hers different ways.
This one she quilted in straight lines close to each other.
(Miss H is keeping this one)


And this one was quilted with zig-zag stitches on the diagonals. Miss H and the Mother think it looks very vintage style.

My pouch is coming... I will show you that another time. :)

Preparation

Hello Peeps,

I helped Miss H and the Mother make pouches.


First of all, I started cutting the edges, but the Mother quickly took the cutter off me! I have NO idea why...


Then I got a close up view of Miss H quilting. But she said I was getting in the way!


So I went to visit the Mother and she said, "Baa darling, do you want to make me a cuppa tea?"
I am sure it was just a ploy to get rid of me. Hrumph!

In the end I gave up and grabbed a candy cane to eat in peace and quiet somewhere nice and comfortable...


Oops! I think I got candy cane all over their pouches! Don't tell them!


Pop by on Tuesday to see the finished pouches.
