I’ve made sourdough before. The pancakes are nice too!

Baking & cooking is just as much a craft as sewing, knitting etc.
Those Yorkshire Puds look good.
What flour did you use @artcasper ?

To be honest... that is a 15p packet mix from Morrisons 🙈🙈 I don't bake enough so this is easier for me..... they turned out nice and the smell drew my teenage daughter out of her bedroom and she stole 1 !

Today I made lemon souffle for the first time... I was really pleased with how they turned out and the rise I got on them! My family were scraping out the bowls for more!

:drool: I'll be over in a few minutes! Can I have the recipe please? My husband makes chocolate souffle with a raspberry sauce, but I do love lemons!
 
I was meant to go to Lidl Earlier this week to pick up a new sewing machine. The old one broke and I spotted they were selling a reasonable looking one from last Sunday. Since I’ve not been at work this week, I thought I’d buy it and keep my fingers busy, but a mixture of tiredness and anxiety stopped me going to Lidl :doh: Ah well, the boys will have to live a while longer with the old cosies. It did mean though I could crack on with my bathroom which still needs painting since it was redesigned two months ago 🎨 🪜

If its any consolation I have heard some very mixed reviews about the Lidl machines. The brother machines are excellent and you can get some very reasonably priced

To be honest, I thought it looked a bit small for my needs and I’d prefer to spend a little bit more and get an overlocker attachment. The Elna I had before would take some beating, but it did struggle a bit on thicker materials. I have seen a Singer Denim which has good reviews, I m tempted :drool:

I have the Brother Innovis F420, it's all whistles and bells. It wasn't cheap but it was great value when you consider that it comes with all the different feet. Looking forward to my next project

Oh my goodness my mums got an Elna, think she's had it about 45-50 yrs it's still going strong! Not an all singing, all dancing one but various zigzag & straight stitches with various length/width settings & a good old buttonhole setting.

Don't think many people had them as I rarely hear anyone else say about them! Xx

It’s sounds like quite a posh one! The Elna had allsorts on it, half of which I’d never us :doh::)) It was great until it broke. I tried fixing it a couple of times, but now it’s had a send off :bye:
You may remember a certain thread with my attempts with leopard print fleece... :whistle:

Sounds similar, but mine was not quite as old. The only faffy thing about it was trying to thread the needle, took me ages! 🙈
