Giving Up Amy for Nigella

Baby Oven Miracle

Late Winter Sunset

This weekend I made a grand attempt to layout a Plus Sign Quilt (see Jenni B's tutorial here) but failed miserably. I need a design wall--the floor isn't cutting it. I have a couple of sets of Amy Butler's "Love" charm packs but I don't think the prints play all that well together--the prints are fun but they are a little too big for the five-inch format and there isn't enough negative space. Meh. Maybe if I mix in some solids it will go better. Halfway through the layout I threw up my hands and moved to the kitchen where I took on Nigella Lawson's Dense Chocolate Loaf. It is so, so good the first day and divine the second day. The moist loaf is really more like a cross between a pudding, brownie and cake and it gets better with age like gingerbread.
