Usually my canning starts in August, but I got an early start with these pickled beets a couple of weeks ago. I thought I would share with you how they turned out. I am the only one who likes pickled beets, so the 9 bottles I got done should last me the year.
I also finished two more projects of my own. The fabric for this quilt was given to me at the store. A customer was leaving town, and gave the fabric and a "Turning Twenty" pattern, to be given to someone who could make it. A lady in our guild pieced the top and it came back to me. So, I purchased the backing, batting and binding, and finished it off. It will be donated this fall.
This next quilt was a mystery quilt through an online group. The steps came every 3 days, and I got it done fairly quickly. I kept up on all the steps. Then I hung the top on my basement family room wall for quite a while. Here it is, finally finished. I love the graphic effect of the big square. The way it came together was fun.
Then, I finished this store sample. It is cute, but much bigger than I would have made it. I think it would be fine with the panel and two or three borders. However, it did turn out cute and I am done with it. Hooray!!
Now, another quilt for the store to be done by August. I think I can, I think I can, I think I can...
Happy Sewing!
If I was at your house I wouldn't fight you for those pickled beets, either, Tammy. But they are a lovely color! : )
ReplyDeleteNice quilting job on all of your projects. I agree that the Christmas panel didn't need all of the added stuff on the top and bottom, but you just do what you are told, right? *LOL*
