Halloween, 2014

Halloween would not be complete without,  monsters . . .

 pumpkins. . .

 

 and a few good witches. 

My favorite Halloween design year after year has been the witch hat, but this year I had fun hand cutting the legs that were inspired by a sun catcher I found in the $1.00 bin at the fabric store.

Happy Halloween and Boo to you!

Fall Leaves for a Special Friend

 

My friend, Kathy, and I had plans to travel to Boston together this fall, unfortunately, we had to cancel the trip due to her cancer diagnosis.  As she bravely meets the challenges of chemotherapy, her caring and generous co-workers organized a fundraiser for her.

I was asked to bring cookies for the dessert table, so I  am hopeful that this fall collection will be a "sweet" replacement for the fall colors of New England.

 

These cookies are fun and easy to make thanks to SweetSugarBelle's tutorial.
