Christmas Day crafting.

A little Pusheen peg board. A very basic project, just intended as a test run for molding InstaMorph - but it worked out well! We've been getting a lot of use out of that silicon Pusheen mold.

We finally made delightful use of the bath bomb recipe provided by @madamebadger here! Scents included grapefruit perfume oil, “Winter Wonder Woman” oil from http://www.annawingfield.com, smoke-infused sea salt, and a little cheaty use of Ocean Salt from Lush.

The silicon Pusheen ice cube tray worked remarkably well, we expected more crumbling but it’s quite solid. The are as-yet untested in actual baths, but smell and feel great.

Not so much a craft, but... Rosemary vodka based on http://potluck.ohmyveggies.com/rosemary-infused-vodka/. Stuffed a bottle absolutely full of rosemary from the garden, shook it up several times per day, and removed the solids after two days. Pairs delightfully with apple cider. Now that the taste test is done, more is on its way!

Here’s a really rough draft of the pattern I’m going to use for my quilt. It’s a variation of a simple patchwork quilt, but a little more modern. I think it’s going to look really pretty when it’s done!

Tomorrow the cutting of the fabric begins. :D
