They are some of my favorites. My mother's recipe calls for eggs, but not baking soda. She called them Hungarian Crescents. (No, we are not Hungarian). The nut mixture in hers is used as a filling rather than mixing them in with the flour. Wonder what the odds are that I will make them soon? Hmmm, probably not too good.glormhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08864222002627736492noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4223770046510890885.post-13225403797885641742015-11-02T00:08:03.939-07:002015-11-02T00:08:03.939-07:00Thanks for reading my blog.

My alteration probably changed the underarm section a little too, but if you make sure when you cut out your pattern that it will fit at the waist then the tucks will not need the extra alteration and you will have the cute A-line shape for the skirt. Good luck, it is a very cute dress.

It is not much of an A-line cut more of a boxy square cut, with very little bias on the side so that makes the waist much larger than it needs to be. Also kind of hard to make the fabric distribute evenly around theLorindahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16827815776566518090noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4223770046510890885.post-38103750119753206612014-05-04T17:07:18.460-06:002014-05-04T17:07:18.460-06:00Man. clothes.
