This was an order that I rushed through in about 12 hours… and I think you can tell. I was a little overly excited about the new technique that saved the day on the Yoder HVAC cookies. But in this case, the swords would have been better piped free-hand. Also, there just wasn’t room for all the words on these small cookies. I should have spoken up with the donor or selected a much larger cookie. AND the cookies were too brown around the edges. Anyhow, I happened to be at this party (why am I *never* at the parties for the sets that I’m really proud of?) and was completely tickled to hear a grown man rejoicing over receiving cookies with “pirate swords” on them. Never mind that they were supposed to be medieval swords
But guess what? Perfection or not, this order earned another five nets for the vulnerable in Africa. And that’s something to rejoice over!
