They are a lot of work. The dough is made using potatoes; the plums have to be pitted; and after the dumpling has been cooked it is rolled in fried bread crumbs made with lots of butter and sugar. Yum!
Not too much on the stitching front to share. I wish I had taken time to iron this before I took my photo; I'm kind of being lazy this morning. I am glad that Barb and Alma are late in getting part two out - gives me time to get part one stitched!
Happy Stitching!

Plum dumplings sound interesting! Your stitching looks great! I need to get my part one stitched, too. Gulp.

Plum dumpling...that's just fun to say! And it looks yummy!
I've never heard of a plum dumpling, but man does it look delicious!
Your WIP looks gorgeous.
The plum dumplings look absolutely delicious.
You must be hungarian! My ggrandma & grandma used to make those and I get a strong craving this time of year. My mom and I tried to make them a few weeks ago and ended up throwing them away. I think our problem was the dough. And YES they are alot of work. You are so lucky to have your mom make them for you! Yummy!
I'm a couple posts behind, but have to tell you your use of your mom's tatting is gorgeous and a fantastic idea! And your Tis the Season is beautiful; hope to see it framed soon.
Both things make me drool and I don't know which one more - the pretty stitching piece or the dumpling. Lol.
Your Mom is so sweet and talented!
Nice work on the BBD ;)
I just love plum dumplings! We don't usually put butter on ours, just sugar... yum!
Sadly though we don't know anyone who makes them anymore... can I borrow your mom for a little bit?
Looks good, both of them..
both look good..
I don't eat plums very often but those dumplings sure look good! mmmmm Your new BBD piece is really pretty. I have SO many BBD designs waiting to be stitched, it could keep me busy for years.
