These all look amazing! We came home with an apple pie, friendship bread, ginger cookies, shortbread, and jam thumbprints.

I almost snagged some friendship bread, then decided on peach bread instead. Your quilt looked great!

Your bookmarks are great! I love Miyazaki, but the Bigfoot with the text is the cat’s pajamas.

Oh em goodness, that sheeeep! So adorable.

Did you ever work on a pattern called The Great American Afghan? My organizer found my three or four squares of it and was like, “Oh, this looks like a WIP.” I nervously laugh, uh sure. I only last worked on it twelve years ago :face_with_peeking_eye:

It is. I remember the giant bobbles being the hardest part.
