May 6, 2010 11:46 pm. How is your week going? These are jumbo cookies and they’re pretty darn good. I’ve tried snickerdoodles with all butter (not crispy enough) or all crisco*(not enough flavor), but I prefer a good mix of butter AND crisco. I can’t remember how many cookies this recipe made, but it seems like it was around 40. 4 teaspoons cream of tartar. 2 teaspoons baking soda. 1 cup unsalted butter. 1 cup vegetable shortening. 1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract. Roll dough into a smooth ball. So I have...

The Way I Sew It: July 2015
http://thewayisewit.blogspot.com/2015_07_01_archive.html
Friday, July 31, 2015. If my math is correct, this little quilt that I finished this week is the seventh kennel quilt for the veterinary surgery clinic. Again, using recycled scrubs, the top is a low volume kind of thing, just squares, sort of a streak of lightning setting. Lightning is low volume, right? Or at least until its sound reaches our ears, and then the thunder makes us sit up a little straighter. The fabric for the back is thrifted. Gotta love Goodwill! Linking to: Can I Get a Whoop-Whoop.

The Way I Sew It: October 2014

Thursday, October 30, 2014. Drunkard's Path Quilt Along - Week 4. There's something to whoop about today—I got the plaid drunkard's path quilt top sewn together this past week! It went together really well. I did any necessary trimming to size/squaring up, block by block, as I sewed each row. The full shot was taken with me standing on a chair and holding the camera up almost touching the ceiling. What we do for our quilts, huh? It will finish at 72 x 90 inches. I love it! It still needs a few things:.

Monday, July 27, 2015. What have you been reading, viewing, or listening to this summer? The HST kennel quilt, now finished! I've been enjoying a few of the classics in books by Thomas Hardy and Charles Dickens. These are things I hadn't read in my youth. I was motivated to read the book Far From the Madding Crowd. And Jude the Obscure. Also by Hardy (all free audiobooks. Linked to the titles, should you wish to explore). In between the latter two, I also read David Copperfield. Or was that a hot flash?

The Starry Home Crafter. Just another WordPress.com weblog. November 4, 2012. Quilt for NY state troopers to have when they work with small children. The pink and green blocks were won from my quilt guild. Since the other one was so obviously a girl quilt, I had to make a boy’s one too. My October challenge was to make charity projects. I already showed you the hats I made. Here are the quilts I’ve been working on. These were both machine quilted, a big challenge for me. From → My 365 Day Challenge.

The Way I Sew It: May 2015
http://thewayisewit.blogspot.com/2015_05_01_archive.html
Friday, May 29, 2015. I finished the Hands2Help charity quilt this past week, and it is boxed and ready to ship off to Emily for Happy Chemo. This was a really fun 16-patch quilt to make. My stash seemed to be over-weighted in pink, so I started by pulling some of those, as well as some reds, teals and aquas, and started stitching. This was started during Sarah's Sweet 16 Quilt Along. There's a little bit of everything else in the 16-patches, which is just how I like it. Linking to: Whoop-Whoop Friday.
