My niece D and I are doing a project together, sort of..;-)
It is a stitchery and pieced quilt.
I am doing mine as red work (DMC 498).
Here is my first finished basket.
She is doing hers in black work (DMC 310) like the pattern below.
Will be so pretty!
She bought the pattern and her black toile fabric at the Feb quilt show.
I have enough red toile in my stash( I hope) to do mine.
I have started work on my second basket.
They do go rather quickly using one color.
We ( me) did change the flowers a bit, maybe a goodly bit,
but not the baskets or over all look ...;-)
Yesterday I got an urge for scones.
Just out of the blue!
So made a few to go with my tea!
I added Italian Blend Cheese and Mrs. Dash Garlic and Herb Seasoning Blend.
Just used a basic recipe then added a 1/2 tsp herb blend and maybe a 1/2 cp of the cheese.
I did not measure!
A savory scone that was yummy with butter and my cuppa Twinings Earl Grey!
Scones and earl grey ..aahhh !!!
ReplyDeleteHow nice to be doing a project with your DN. Be nice to see them both finished on your blog.
ReplyDeleteYUMMMMMMMMMM can smell those scones all the way down under. LOL
Very nice........it will be interesting to see the same project in two different colors...always amazing how they look when finished. LOVE the scones, too!!!
ReplyDeleteBoth quilts are going to be wonderful!
ReplyDeleteI love the Mrs. Dash Garlic and Herb seasoning! I bet it was wonderful in the scones!
oooo I agree. Nothing compares with a good scone and a cup of tea. Please stop by my blog and vote for my friend :-)
ReplyDeleteWon't it be fun to see both projects completed and compare them?
ReplyDeleteThe tea and scones sound wonderful!
Never having a scone, I'll have to try a recipe sometime. Looks so yummy! Love your quilt work too!

ReplyDeleteFun to catch up here and see you have been a wee bit busy with the redwork. Enjoy your weekend.
How frightfully English! Your stitchery quilts are going to be super! Ann :-)
ReplyDeleteNow you've done it--I am hungry just thinking about those scones!!!!
ReplyDeleteIt is fun to the same project with someone else--yet using different colorways--will be waiting for more pictures--so it's time to stop eating and drinking on the job and get back to work!!!!
Hugs, Di
Your project will be pretty! Your scones look delicious and your cup and saucer are so pretty, what a fun tea break!
