Framed Plush Flower and Patchwork Scene

Now that Christmas is done I can finally post this! For my mom this year I went to St. Vincent's and got myself a big, cheap, wooden frame, cut myself a bunch of different blue fabrics and made three plush flowers and combined all of those to make this:



I'm really happy with the way it turned out, and my mom likes it too.

Christmas Cookies!

Since I have been drawing a lot lately, I figured I should switch it up a little today. I made sugar cookies and frosted them Christmas style!


I know baseballs aren't Christmas-y but that one is my favorite.  :)


I used this recipe for the sugar cookies. I changed it a bit though, only used 6 cups flour (I never even got to the 7th cup of flour because my beater's motor sounded like it was going to die), and I never chilled it. This recipe is huge, I think I had about 6 dozen cookies, if I use it again, I will definitely cut it in half.

And I used this recipe for the frosting.

Obviously, I also used a LOT of colored sugar and a couple kinds of sprinkles.

Happy Holidays!
