I have no idea how they invented the hook, though!
I saw latchhook pencil cases on amazon. I think it would be fun to complete one of those then brush out the yarn. Fuzzy case!

It came out great!

I was also wondering how latchhook would look if you brushed out the yarn. You might have to trim it down a little first…

Okay, I’m going to add one of those kits to my list. It sounds so fun and I have a brush that works very well on yarn. The bristles are like steel wool if you straightened it.
It looks great! I made a couple latchhooks when I was younger - one was turned into a decorative pillow and I think the other was crammed back into its box.

Brief Description: I used a lot of liquid to made this homemade ramen! I used this recipe, and it turned out really well! My egg does look funny because I hit it too hard when I tried to crack the shell and just broke it in half.

Brief Description: There were many steps to create these cookies! I used this recipe and ended up with 33 cookies. Using parchment paper on the baking sheets worked really well to keep them from sticking - I’ll have to remember to try it next time I make cookies too!

I use parchment paper all. the. time. Tater tots, homemade pizza, cake bottoms, stromboli, it’s all parchment paper. Except for bacon. Cleanup is still easier if you cook it on aluminum foil with a lip on a baking sheet.
Mmm jammy egg!

We have a very similar ramen recipe that’s one of our go-tos! The softboiled egg is just DA BEST.

It made cleanup so much easier! I don’t know why I haven’t tried it before. I’ve had a roll of parchment paper for years.

Brief Description: I made a wonky quilt from 99% stash (I had to buy more thread). It’s a bit of a mess because it was thrown together, but it’s just for sitting out in the yard, so it will still protect me from grass stains and dirt.

It looks cozy and homey. Molly Weasley would whole heartedly approve.

All your food projects look so yummy! And the quilt looks so perfect for a picnic or for laying on the grass, looking at the stars.

I like it! Did you put a little tag in the top right corner? How big is it?
1 Like
Yes, I had some tags, so I added one with a cat on it:
The quilt is ~ 43" x 38" and the tag is 1 1/8" x 5/8" before sewing it in.

The tag is so cute! I like the little flowers on the fabric! It reminds me of some scraps that my mom gave me. They are part of the “good stuff” fabric shoebox.

I love this quilt project both for it’s own merits and also as encouragement to just do some sewing for the doing of it and getting things done. I hope you get lots of fun use out of it!

Brief Description Love these socks, but I always put a hole in my socks - strange toe I guess. I took the time to darn a few pairs. It’s oddly satisfying to wear something I’ve mended to extend its life.

You reminded me that I have a mini kit that my friend purchased for me! Thank you, I’m adding it to my project list. I don’t think it’s as big as the ones you have made here!
