I have also used the pages of an old atlas. It looks pretty if you alternate squares of water with squares cut from land.I am glad it worked with the plastic currency. I did not realize that it might be a problem.

I use the same amount of splenda as I would have used sugar.

We have a lot of diabetes in the family. I have made many cheesecakes with splenda instead of sugar. That also makes the end result very creamy.

We don't have hedgehogs where I live. I will probably have to search for a lot of pictures to get the painting part right but he is so cute that I have to try this one.

We used to do this with the left over bit of dough. I never considered making pie crust just to use this way. Thanks for the idea.

Glad you like it. It is an easy project to teach crochet to a beginner as well as use up small amounts of left over yarns.

I like the method you used. The final shape of the bowl looks great.

I used to make these for my nephew when he was little. Sometimes I dipped them in melted chocolate.

I made a bowl for a school party once or twice. Easy and very popular. I wonder why I stopped making them. I will have to make another batch soon. Thanks for reminding me.

Maybe a coat of polyurethane to help protect them. I will be making some of these this weekend. Great idea.

Looks so easy. It will be great to show my niece. She will love being able to decide herself what colors she wants.

Wow. Way more than I thought given the small quantities of the ingredients. Glad I asked.

About how many cookies do you get from one batch?

I love the texture of the stitch you used. I have knit many blankets over the years. I think this stitch is one of the best for making a blanket that will stand up to a lot of use and still look nice.

Math is so beautiful!

Leave your newspaper for a few weeks. Once the ink has a chance to dry completely you will not get it all over your hands.

I love how full you made the fluke. Looks beautiful!!!

Can you insert a picture/video of the device being used? I am having trouble understanding it's use. Is this for someone who has injured the lower part of the leg?

where is the button hole placed? Can you add it to the picture in step 3 so I understand better?

I have been looking for recipes to try out with coconut flour. How would you adapt this recipe?

It would have been even better if you had hooked up a few small light bulbs that would light individual rooms.

Thank you

Me y thoughts exactly!

If you leave out the vanilla you will barely even notice the difference. I have accidentally left it out several times.

Thanks

The one I am working on next is more durable. To fix, gently slide two of the pieces apart. Count to see if you need more or less pieces--each hole should have 5 sides. You may have to take a few more pieces out in order to finish adjusting.

A relative with a gluten sensitivity told me that oats contain gluten. Do you need to find a specific kind of oats to be gluten free?

I love the colors you used to make this. It would be lovely to see the dress on a model.

I will remember this for some day when I have grandchildren.

How much oil do you get from an average coconut? Does it matter how fresh the coconut is?

I don't think I would be able to wait the 3 hours for it to cool.

I have made these but did not add any water. I bet they are much better with the water. Do you have to add more water over time???

What does the sugar do for the mold? It seems like an in-necessary ingredient. Have you tried this without the sugar? How many cars were you able to get from one mold?

I especially like the second one. The fabric is beautiful as well as the simple design.

I am thinking of using some fake fur I have in my basement and adding a pair of quilted feet.

It goes pretty quickly. You are sewing the exact same amount and cutting the same amount. You are just changing the order. I have a tool that is a half inch wide. You line it up corner to corner on the fabric. Then you draw a pencil line along each edge--these are the sewing lines. After sewing both lines, you cut the two pieces apart and you have 2 squares.

I know a college student who may need a giant one for her dorm room--pillow sized.

This would be a good way to introduce electronics to children or other beginner.

I wonder if I can figure out how to make the coin dropping cause the light to come on.

It is very beautiful.

I wish I had known it was this easy a few years ago. We got rid of all the leather furniture because it was cracked.

I bet peanut butter cookies would work well too. Maybe with a spoonful of extra peanut butter.

I read it in a quilting book years ago when I was learning to quilt. I don't follow all the rules of quilting that I read back then but that one worked for me so I still do it.

How do you get the kite in step 4?

I find that when I cut the squares into triangles and then sew them, that the fabric stretches. I draw a pencil line diagonally across the squares. Then I sew on both sides of the pencil line. When you cut on the pencil line, you end up with 2 squares but the fabric lays flatter (no stretching).

It is never too late to learn. I learned years ago--only intended to make one or 2 small ones. Loved it so much that I have ended up making several hundred.

Yum! This is what I always order.

I have seen people eating salads and sandwiches but if I wanted that, I would stay home.

Nice design. I may need one of these. Thanks for the idea.

What a creative idea!

It was a lot of fun. I only made a dozen hats and scarves. I am working on more now since we are expecting new snow this weekend.

We are expecting 5 to 9 inches--depending on which tv news team you ask. You can have as much as you want. We have more than enough to share!

I love labyrinths. This looks like a lot of fun.

I am going to try this as soon as in get my new microwave out of its box. Thanks.

Thanks. I was wondering if the heat would mess with the wax.

Does the wax come out when you launder them?

Would be great for a Hawaiian themed party--maybe let the guests keep them.
