This afternoon I made a Gooseberry and Orange Drizzle Cake

Looking forward to trying some tomorrow 😋
Trying to use up the last gooseberries from the bushes which I picked earlier, still got quite a lot left though as it only uses 225g. I also made some gooseberry chutney last week.

Wish there was a 'yum' emoji option to react to your post. I love gooseberries!
 
Finished my daughter's dungarees. Oddly enough I anticipated this being a challenging sew but I didn't anticipate closing the elasticated leg cuff channel being quite so difficult. This literally took blood, sweat and tears (I stuck a pin in my finger and got blood on the elastic but it's all enclosed so you can't see it luckily!)

She’ll look so cute in those ❤️
 
I haven't had gooseberries in years. I had gooseberry jam once, my mum tells me it must've been a homemade jam but because of where we were when I tried it I'm never going to get to try it again lol.

I don't have anything crafty to share. Well, more braids, but that's that. I'm in the middle of cutting out a pattern (and doing a very poor job of it, I feel), so...when it's not too hot to do some ironing, away I go!

It is, very yummy. It got the hubby seal of approval so it must be good!

I found the recipe on a link @Wiebke sent me👍. I'd have never thought of putting gooseberries in a Drizzle Cake myself!

Your cake looks very delicious!

Hub made a coconut and gooseberry cake from some of your gooseberries - and very delicious and moist it was too! I was lucky to get one piece because it was disappearing fast. The richness of the coconut and the tartness of the gooseberries balanced really well.

If this isn't heaven then it probably should be. :drool:

OK - I need a clue.
I have looked at it for ages and can't work it out!

He's a bear made with two fat quarters, those two pieces make up the back of him. I basically chose two weird fabric designs because I'm new to this and can afford to mess up the weird ones :))

(edit: accidentally ran afoul of the profanity filter there, don't mind me!)

It's finally finished :D - I have been working on this scarf since May. I think that's the longest period of time it ever took me to finish a scarf. The summer heat never really encourages me to do a lot of crocheting.

But since it's a light scarf for summer evenings, it's a good thing it didn't take me till the end of August to finish it. ;)
