Chocolate Espresso Cookies

I'm very proud of myself,  I made these cookies two days ago and there are still some left! Great for a quick chocolate fix, they're rich with a nice kick of coffee. The weather is starting to warm up and I bet these would be even better sandwiched with vanilla ice cream, so enjoy!

Crochet Easter Eggs

The weather is really starting to warm up and spring is almost here! Now I love me some play food and since Easter is right around the corner, I'm sharing this pattern for cute little crochet eggs. Done up in soft pastel yarn, these eggs make a sweet alternative to candy for an Easter basket!

Stuffed Magazine Feature

So back in August of last year I submitted some work to Stuffed, this great magazine about the art of making softies. I'm really excited to say that my little crochet animals were accepted and I'm being featured in their Winter 2013 issue! The lovely people at Stuffed did a great job creating a fun party background for my chubby dog and cat. I also got to write an article about the ideas behind my crochet, including some tips and techniques that I use.

I've been getting this magazine for a couple of years now and it's always fun to see what other artists are creating and the inspiration behind their work. Stuffed is out on newsstands, major book stores, and craft stores right now so go check it out! Or order it online here!

Cyber Monday Sale

So I've fallen off the face of the planet for quite some time, but I'm going take the blog up again and start updating regularly.  I am sorry for not keeping up.  First things first, Happy Thanksgiving! I hope your bellies are full of turkey and pie and if you are braving Black Friday sales, stay safe and shop hard!
