Busy week

snuggly critters

 It has been a quiet week but I have managed to get lots done. Six little stuff animals have their own quilts to go to their new homes with. I make small quilts to go with stuff animals for charity. The quilts were made with some of the scraps that I found while cleaning last week. You can read more about that subject here. I also finished this quilt top for charity. I added some of my own fabric to more found scraps and voila...another top to machine quilt.

I have had a quilt pin basted and sitting and waiting and yesterday I started it. I hope to finish it today and get the binding on it. That will be my slow stitching when I join Kathy for some needle and thread time. It is so warm and muggy here but suppose to cool off so I might be able to sit in my favourite chair outside and do the binding!

Before the rains come and knock down the poppies...I thought I would share them with you. They are so large and fluffy but only last a day or two once they open up. The garden is doing well too. I have been eating and freezing beans and peas. Lettuce, onions, kale and zucchini are being eaten as they grow! I love planning meals from the garden.

I may open another sewing bag of goodies. Come back and check the blog and see what I may get into this week!
