This week I have been busy making myself a dressing gown out of blue polar fleece. It is just the thing for these cold nights! Next I want to match some matching PJ’s.
For Mothers Day I made both of my Grandmothers a tea towel apron. You can find the instructions here. I bought the tea towel from IKEA and attached some matching twill tape. Both of my Nan’s were very pleased to receive it.
I have recently baked some Fudge Cinnamon Brownies that I made from Philigry’s recipe. They were very yummy and were more of a cake type brownie that a chewy dense brownie. The cinnamon added some extra flavour to this moist brownie.
I am really looking forward to going to the Perth Craft and Quilt Fair on Saturday with my Mum and Nan.

Oh the brownies look so good, if only I wasn’t on a diet! Love the pinny too, such a simple but effective design.

The dressing gown you made for yourself looks snuggly and pretty as can be!
I hope you will take pictures and share lots from the fair. Have a lovely time!

Again I am lamenting the fact that we don’t have an Ikea anywhere near us!

Sarah you really are very clever. I am thinking of making a new snuggly dressing gown as mine is rather old. I might follow your lead and those brownies look very yummy shame we are so far apart or I might pop over for one with a coffee.
Kylie says
Sarah – you have done a great job on the dressing gown!
Will have to go and check out the recipe of the brownies – yummo!
Cathy says

Those brownies looks so scrummy. Good thing I started this virual diet. Now I can eat virtually anything.

Danielle says
Those brownies look YUM! Bet they tasted even better.
Selina says
yumo cake! great apron idea
have fun at the fair, sure you will
Rachael Rabbit says
Does that mean that you can cook and wipe your hands at the same time – I constantly loose the tea towel and by the time I’m finished in the kitchen I’ve made about 5 dirty – its a great idea!
Em says
Sarah, those brownies look amazing!
