Friday morning cake making

Cakemaking2

I didn’t need to don my apron for these cakes. The downside is that you don’t get to lick the mixture from the spoon though!
Note to Jackie at Wren’s nest – your gorgeous needlecase is still getting lots of use!

Note to self: must get the iron out, hmmm I wonder where it is?!

  1. Your cupcakes are gorgeous. (Wait, that didn’t sound quite right…) Zoe sent me one for Valentine’s Day, and I have it on my desk next to Mr Minky (the monkey). The detail is amazing.

  2. I never cease to be amazed at the way you can turn ordinary wool into such lovely objects! (I can just about manage a scarf. A small one).

  3. When I was teaching a class recently one of the ladies arrived and promptly propped up one of your little cotton rabbits against her sewing machine. Naturally I exclaimed, “Oh – it’s A LITTLE COTTON RABBIT!” I love your blog and how cute the rabbits look but NOTHING could have prepared me for how they FEEL!!!!!! They are divine and they feel like heaven. Congratulations on giving something wonderful to the world!

  4. What’s an iron? And do I need to get one?? Hurrah for cakes!! I know I need one of those – I’m still feeling slightly quesy after polishing off half a Dime cake! I’m looking forward to elbowing people out of the way when those little treats come up in your shop!

  5. You know how much I love these little beauties. Nice photo of wip. When I go to John Lewis I always stop and look at the Gutterman seed beads (and usually buy some).

  7. Iron….An enslaving device to hinder creative souls from having fun…..UNLESS….It is reclaimed for using in patchwork and fun activities! Next time your man wants you to “Run over my pants with the iron, Dear”, throw pants on floor, clutch a cold iron while stomping on the pants with your feet shouting, “Run, run, run, run!” then hand the pants back and tell him “All done dear!” Return to your creativity!
