These are a few of my favourite things.... - A Spoonful of Sugar
I spent today with two sweet stitching buddies – chatting, eating, and looking through craft books. Bliss!
2. Lemon Macaroons
I tried a new macaroon flavour today – Lemon. Loving citrus flavours at the moment. They were filled with my lemon butter. I used a recipe from here.
3. Hexagons
I bought a pack of hexagon templates at a recent Craft Fair. I have been enjoying stitching up a batch of hexagons and can see them appearing in all sorts of projects.
4. Sashiko
I finished my sashiko panel and decided to turn it into a drawstring bag – perfect for travel or projects on the go.
Some of my other favourite things are…. Raindrops on roses and whiskers on kittens, bright copper kettles and warm woolen mittens, brown paper packages tied up with strings, these are a few of my favorite things.
I think Lemon Macaroons are my new favourite too…I’m saving mine for dessert 😉 The Sashiko looks fabulous…running stitch never looked so good (wink!) Thanks for another fun day xxx
I really love your favorite things too! I bet it was fun to use your own lemon butter in those lemon macaroons. I swear I am going to try hexagons one of these days. What size templates are you using? My sister tried sashiko recently, and she like it, so I might have to try that too. Thanks for the inspiration!
I love it all…including those absolutely adorable polka dotted dishes!! Hexagons– that one made me laugh, but I can certianly understand it after seeing the picture. 🙂
Crafting with friends, drinking tea, eating cookies…not so many things give me such pleasure!!! The polka dots are delicate. Thank you for the lovely post. Bela.
Those lemon macaroons were delicious, the company and the books were just as good! Love the hexagons, the templates were a great find at the craft fair. The sashiko is gorgeous too (LOL at Susan’s comment!).
So many lovely things! The tea set with polka dots is adorable! Beautiful hexagons, wonder in which project you’re going to use them. I love your sashiko string bag, simply beautiful!
Your sashiko bag looks absolutely wonderful. I like the little bit of check at the top.
Your favorite things all look like fun and those lemon cookies look absolutely delicious!!
What a lovely post. Your sashiko looks wonderful and it looks like you had a lovely day even if it was cold.

I am absolutely certain that I like lemon macaroons too.
Your hexagons are lovely.
Polka dotted teacups and plates make is all even better.
Your favourite things are also some of mine!! Especially chatting with craft friend, eating and doing crafts. Wonderful stuff! Have a great day.
