This week Dan's parents are here. Dad is working on the attic, and mom is keeping me company.
Since I have my craft sale during the week of Thanksgiving, I don't do any baking. This week gives me a little breather from the intensity of crafting. It also gives me a good excuse to bake. Today Miles and I made apple pie and pumpkin pie for dessert tonight.
They are so yummy!
Even though I am not focusing on my crafts this week. I do have a goal of making penny rugs out of felt I bought at Joanne's. I've never done this before, but I found a blog that shows you how to make them. http://pennyrugsandmore.blogspot.com I am going to try it. I used her idea of using freezer paper to draw on before cutting out my circles.
Miles helped take the paper off and count them for me.
Then I bagged each project to keep them organized.
I am slowly sewing them together, using the blanket stitch.
I have one pack stacked.
This is how I am going to sew this group together.
My Mother-in-law is very good at knitting and crocheting. She was working on snowflakes while I worked on the penny piles for my penny rugs.

It has been a nice break. The attic is starting to come together. Yippee!!
Yes, Tammy, I took another piece of dough from the pumpkin pie, but, I did not take the first one that was missing! :) It was delicious!! Can't wait to see the finished penny project. :)
