Several of you may remember when my sister, Melissa came for a visit a year ago. Not only was she was brave enough to join in for our "Prairie Days" experiment she taught us how to smock!
She eventually turned this smocking into a doll dress. I have to admit that I didn't work on my small project once she left, but we won't tell her that, ok? ;0)
She also made beautiful knitted pillows for the girls.
Anyways, Melissa now has her own blog! It's called Bombshell Studios and yesterday she made a cookie that was almost too pretty to eat. Not quite though!
I would love if you would go over and say a quick hello!!
Have a great weekend!

Those thingies she baked look DElisious!
I've desperately been wanting to learn smocking for 17 years now. Someday I'll take a class. Maybe in time for a grand daughter.
I stopped by and said hello to Melissa and you're right, her cookies did look delicious! (o:

Now for the interesting part... SMOCKING? I have never heard of that! It looks amazingly fun and calming.
Love Melissa's work (particularly the cushion). Have been across to her blog. It is lovely and the biscuit slice looks delicious.
Blessings and bliss
She made such pretty things!
I'm so happy for you that it is cooler in Texas. It isn't here. Our power went out a couple of nights ago because a transformer had blown from being overloaded. It took them 7 hours to get it repaired. It was hot!!!

There are just not enough hours in the day....
PS. Heading over there to say hello. Like I need another blog to become addicted to! ;-)
