In the Pink
I don't know how it could be possible, but I don't own a pink top! Pink is one of my favorite colors. I can get pretty picky about the shade of pink though so that could be my problem. I need a pink top for a breast cancer fundraiser this week so I sat down today to make one, because when you need one the stores don't have any. This pattern was very straight forward and came together in a couple of hours. I bought the knit material at Joann's and when all is said and done, it's not great fabric. It's thin and too see through so I'll have to wear a cami but for what I need it for, it's fine. The knit has sparkles all over that don't show in the picture. I would like to try the pattern again with a nice quality cotton knit.
I found the best cookbook at World Market. I love everything about it! I made the cheese crackers yesterday and they were great! I didn't want plain old squares like cheese nips so I used a little bumble bee cutter I had. As always, if your'e going to make the effort, make it pretty!
Blessings,

The pattern looks really nice, I'd like to try it. So do the cheese crackers. Where did you get the cutter from?
ReplyDeleteHow did you all like the cheese crackers?
ReplyDeleteI'm sorry your fabric was a disappointment, that that is really a cute pattern! The bees look cute also, and tummy!
ReplyDeleteOopsie! My fingers ran away with my brain. Should be "BUT that is really a cute pattern."
ReplyDeleteI think your shirt looks lovely! I do love the shade of pink it is too!! Such a wonderful job!! Your new book looks like it holds many delicious recipes!! :) Your bee cutter is so cute! :) That's a good rule to live by, if you're making the effort, make it pretty!!! Thanks Renee! xo Holly
ReplyDeleteRenee, your shirt is pretty. I share your frustration about too-thin apparel fabric.
ReplyDeleteCute top! Disappointing to have it so thin. Even when you buy one done up a lot of times it is so thin. It is lucky it lasts one season.
ReplyDeleteSweet new top! And, such cute crackers!! Have a wonderful weekend! xo Heather
ReplyDeleteI think it's very pretty, and the lighter knit will be nice for the hot weather! And the bee crackers are too cute to eat!
