Continuing on........


I'm still sewing cross seams on this quilt.  I get about 2 a day done and there are 12 seams.







Quilting continues on the first spin wallhanging.  I'm about a third done with it.

Meanwhile the vacuuming is done in the basement and 2 tables are cleaned off.

We got a little rain overnight into yesterday morning.  I went out to check the rain gauge, a little less than a tenth of an inch, and checked the tomatoes at the same time.  This is my second big Brandywine Pink tomato.  I gave the first one to a friend so I don't know if they taste any different than the others.  We got another shower, again a little less than a tenth of an inch.  Areas around us got 2-4".

I love those blue green shades. I've been harvesting my tomatoes as well. They taste so wonderful!

I just love that spin quilt! The blue green quilt is coming along quickly!

It didn't rained yesterday, but on Wednesday it poured. Between Tuesday night and Wednesday we got between 1 and 1.5". It is unusual to see green lawns. Usually by August everyone's yard is burnt out and brown!

how are you quilting the spin wall hangings? looks like you're using a walking foot on the baby lock "jane". I do love that iridescent center!

Just to let you know I have been checking in daily this week. Always enjoy seeing how much you accomplish. Plus what is going on in your gardens.

love those tomatoes - mine didn't do very well this year and my daughter said after we left on our trip that they continued to not do well, I told her to tear them out if she wanted to
