Recently someone emailed me about the pineapple tarts
I'd made a while back. It got me thinking - what would
happen if I played around with them a little bit -
used different jams, for instance.
Jenna stayed up with me one night as I was finishing them
up, and assigned flavors to the colors: lemon, lime,
strawberry, raspberry, orange and the original pineapple.
We thought they would make pretty tea-party fare
And of course, the girls wanted a set
but I persuaded them to let me put some in the shop:
So if you'd like this, grab it quick!
And I am also trying something new - a pdf
pattern for sale to make them yourself:
I'll just say that pattern-developing (and writing) is fun,
but it's a fair bit of work. Plus I always struggle to decide
a fair amount to charge for what I make. I hope you will
find this pattern reasonably-priced and easy to use. It is
(unless I've messed up majorly - if so, someone please
shoot me an email) an instant download. In addition to
the templates for tracing, the instructions are fully
illustrated with photos.
But before I put it up for sale, I'd like to give the pattern
away to three of you! I've so enjoyed writing tutorials and
experimenting with new projects and sharing them with you.
Anyway, because I want to get the pattern out for sale soon,
I'm going to do a really short deadline on the giveaway -
so leave a comment on this post by midnight of Wednesday
21st and I'll pick three winners randomly on Thursday.
Then I'll announce the winners and put the pattern out for sale.
Meanwhile, the box of tarts is already in the shop, and the
katybags should be in there by next week, fingers crossed.

These would be great for Christmas, birthdays, any holiday for little ones. (And best of all, they look a lot like the Danish pastries I make when I'm adventurous.)
ReplyDeleteHow fun!! Felt food is on my list of "possible gifts for my daughter if I have time to make it, I hope I do..." for Christmas :) Such sweet little tarts!
ReplyDeleteThose tarts are really, really cute and creative. We would love to try the pattern out here.
ReplyDeleteAwww that is super sweet! I hope to make my girls a play house with a stove and stuff for Christmas, and I would like to make them some felt food, sooo cute!
ReplyDeleteI have enjoyed making all sorts of felt and knit foods for my daughter's play kitchen, but she doesn't have any tarts! I'd love to add some to her collection. Thanks for the great give away.
ReplyDeleteMe! Me! Ooohhh! Pick me at random!!

These are beautiful - we'd love to win!
ReplyDeletehahah, they look gd enough to eat. u never fail to amaze me with ur creativity. would u consider putting a subscribe to ur family blog too? easier to get updates? hehhe
ReplyDeleteYour tarts are super cute! I'm interested to see how the twists are made...
ReplyDeleteThanks for a great giveaway.
Growing up I wasn't a girlie girl, I have 4 older brothers. So, when I had my first girl I was relieved she was a tomboy like me, but my baby is a girlie girl and would "treats" like these for her "family". Never thought to sew food. Great Job!
ReplyDeleteThese are so cute! I would love to make them!
ReplyDeleteMmmmm looks yummy... I just suddenly have a craving for some real pineapple tarts.... Buying the pattern to make some for my girlies!
