Pigs on parade


It is time for marzipan pigs, a well established Christmas tradition in Norway.
My local quilt guild had it Christmas meeting last night with a potholder challenge.
A pair of potholders with a Christmas motif gave a raffle ticket.
Many lovely potholders were on display.
I made mine with the gingerbread cookie cutter and it was fun.
I brought one pair for the challenge.
These potholders with matching tea towels are now in my Christmas gift pile.

  3. Vi skal bake marsipan søndag, - gammel familietradisjon. Tror nok det blir noen griser da, men ikke i stekstil: Dine var søte!

    Flotte julekort!
