spicy apple

new in the folksy shop, and all ready for the stall tables over christmas... i've made a pile of spicy apples. they have crushed cinnamon sticks and cloves secreted inside the filling so give off a delicious scent. very christmassy! i think they would make a perfect teacher gift.

Love Apples!

I made some really sweet apples for last week's Apple Fair, I have just 3 left. Comment or email me direct (brocchi111@hotmail.com) to let me know if you would like one! They are £5 (this includes postage within the UK).

I used this pattern, if you would like to have a go yourself. I didn't worry about a template, just fudged it.... but I like the organic nature of the shape. http://uklassinus.blogspot.com/2007/11/apple-pin-cushion-tutorial.html

And some stuffed favourites (nicely framed, I think):
