Friday Night Sew In: Report


I was supposed to sew Friday night but, after putting up 11 pints of peach jam (and cleaning up after)...


...about all I had the energy to do was wash and dry the jelly roll quilt.


As usual, I tossed two color catchers into the wash and bet myself that the copper color would be the "runner"...   I was wrong.  It was the green....


I have the quilt ready to go...  and will take it to Chip and his family this afternoon.

  7. Those color catchers are better than sliced bread. Peaches look yummy. Put your feet for a fast 10, you earned it.

  10. I've done a lot of canning and, yes, the cleanup is the worst part of it.
