Tuesday Update

I have a finish!  Fall in the City, 88x90"--


I'm guessing it used 15 yards of fabric from my stash.  Mostly red, blue and gray prints from a jelly roll. It was a free pattern from Connecting Threads.   So the new numbers are-

Stash Report
Added this week--00.00 yds
Add YTD 128.80 yds
Out this week--15yds
Out YTD 182.25
I'm ahead 53.45 yards! 

No plans for this quilt, it will go on the "possible gift" stack.

And then there is the man holding the quilt--


Don is another volunteer and often holds quilts for pictures!  Thank you Don!!

The weather is beautiful this week.  I'm going to soak it up and remember it this winter.  The bountiful rains and lots of sun has caused the plants to grow like weeds!  


The big leafy vines are sweet potato vines, the green grassy upright plants are King Tut grasses.  There are flowering vines that needed a place to climb, those are large branches (held up by small steel posts and cable ties) from the debris pile.  $0 government dollars were spent on that trellis!  

Beautiful weather forecast for the entire week.  Plenty of binding projects to work on, maybe I can take one outside to a lawn chair.

What a great quilt finish!! I'm working in that direction but apricots, green beans and sweet corn keep getting in the way. And let's not forget the zucchini. LOL Freezing sweet corn tomorrow. The timely rains have made the garden look really good.
