Summer and Quilting

It's been a while since I last posted.  Lots has happened since March.  Dear Hubby has had two back surgeries and I am happy to report that the second one has been a success so far!

There was lots of canning going on from the garden and very little sewing during that time.  We (Mom and I) put up 84 quarts of green beans, around 37 quarts of tomatoes, several pints of pickle relish and sweet pickled jalapenos (sliced and chopped).  We put several quart bags of okra in the freezer and a few of chopped green pepper, also froze some whole banana peppers and jalapeno peppers.

I managed to get a few baby quilts finished.  Pics below:  The yellow is for a couple at church that just had a sweet baby girl named Evie.  The first pink one is for a sweet baby girl named Kennedy that has been through so much sickness in the one year she has been alive.

This one is Mattie's

This one is for "Sweet P".  She was adopted from China by the great couple above holding her quilt.

I have also been making mug rugs to sell at the October Sky Festival in the town I grew up in to raise money for our Church's Women's Conference.  Here are a few of them.  I have several more to finish up before Saturday morning.

Our Fall Retreat is coming up next month at Pine Mountain State Park in Kentucky.  I'm ready for it.

Until next time, Happy Stitching!
