Biscuit's House

Stuff

I finally finished and sent Carol's bonnets.

I got more thread and linen to make macarons.

I'm a bit tired of small scale crochet right now. I unearthed the ripple throw again. The WIP dress will remain a WIP for a while.

  

Macaron

I made a macaron from the magazine, I couldn't figure out how to make it like in the photos though, with the folds and wavy middle, so I'm a little disappointed, but I suppose if I make several more they will look cute together. For the letter I chose "L" as in "Ladurée". No E168 embroidery thread here, so I used 5283 which I think is too metallic. I'll have to order some E168 online.
