This weekend I made two kinds of toffee so easy and delicious. Hope to post the recipe soon on kathydishes.com
I have been having a great time sewing with felt and using Papertreyink’s sewing die cuts.
Recently we were traveling so I packed my watercolors instead of my Copics.

Birgit says
Congratulations to all the lucky winners! Your toffee looks delish and your little felt purses are adorable! I purchased that set from PTI and still have yet to use it! I’m a little afraid and don’t have any zippers at my disposal. Our local craft stores don’t carry the small size. Have a very Merry Christmas, Kathy!
Kathy Racoosin says
Hi Birgit, I buy my zippers from a 5 and dime type of store and guess what. I buy them long and cut them off. ON the package is directions how to customize the zipper. Basically you cut it off and sew the end … pretty simple. Have fun sewing. 🙂
Becca Cruger says
Oh those felted lovelies are beautiful! They remind me of the colors from Ahna and Elsa’s dresses.
Congrats to the winners!
Annette Allen says

Congrats to all winners! Happy stamping!
I did not know you had another site dedicated to cooking, Kathy. I had a quick look and I already decided I have to try your tostadas. Your toffee looks delicious as well, but I’m afraid there may be a little too much sugar in it for someone who coping with hypoglycemia.
Have a wonderful weekend!
