Tuesday's Title

My creativity, when it comes to titles, has gone AWOL at this late hour.  When I get tired, I either cut right to the chase or get squirrely.  I think it's going to be a cut to the chase kind of night.

I took a look at the scraps littering the cutting mat from the Breathe quilt and decided to go ahead and make a mini.

Since I had lights and darks and reds lying there, I thought I'd try a log cabin block.  I couldn't remember ever making a log cabin block before.

The back:
Little loopy quilting.  I threaded the Juki with some shimmery, light gold Sulky 40 wt. 100% rayon viscose thread.  I fully expected to have to dink around with the tension, but whaddaya know, it was just fine.

I did a second mini with the "scraps left from scraps."  I've got to finish the binding on it and take pictures, maybe tomorrow.

[lack of segue here...see above re tired]

I tried a new chocolate chip cookie recipe the other day.  Here is how it starts:

You are not hallucinating.  That is bacon.

With the name, The Best Paleo Maple Bacon Chocolate Chip Cookie (In the History of Man), I had to make them.

Cut to the chase:  YUM!

  2. Everything is better with bacon (but Nancy already said that). Too funny. A friend of mine, whose husband travels, brought her a chocolate bar with bacon in it. She loved it. I can't remember where he got it . . . I'm thinking maybe Hershey PA, but who knows?

    LOVE the quilting on your mini! Beautifully done.
