Over the last few weeks I've been cleaning up my sewing mess, taking stock of the projects, preparing to get a few finished by the end of the year. I have a lot of hobbies: sewing (quilts and garments), gardening, playing the clarinet and baking. And I also have a job, four young children and a household to run. I have a very full, very blessed life! It does mean that sometimes, certain activities have to take a back seat for a while. <br />So now I want to get some projects done, before continuing with your stitcheries. I had the idea of making little "sewing snacks". I plan to make some drawstring pouches (or even just use plain envelopes) and fill them with a little hand sewing or embroidery gift, like one of your panels (complete with fabric and thread), a small chocolate and a teabag. Then, when I feel like a break, or need a little comfort, I can take out a sewing snack, brew myself a cup of tea, and settle in the sofa with my sewing snack! <br />But first there is a lot of cleaning and organizing to be done around our house!

I kept mine without the border as I wouldn't have a space large enough for it! Great picture of your elderly friend on the bird table.

Lots of straw and shredded newspapers. Hmm that poor cockie looks like an Edgar to me. Lovely pic of Cully May. I use your alternative rock cake recipe a lot. Raining here... sorry lol.<br /><br /><br /><br />Ondreahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15397162777493230125noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5738183327129723042.post-32191940026351627682019-11-02T20:15:40.474+10:002019-11-02T20:15:40.474+10:00lovely post, love your food photos

I wonder if I show as much awe and excitement over all the gifts my Heavenly Father bestows. Do I take that kind of joy in bird song, a pretty wildflower, a sunset, a new discovery? I hope I will think of her face and picture each time there's something for me to see and give gratitude as well as delight in the newness of the gifts of God. The quilt came out delightful, and I'm so glad you did this one. I will have one myself one of these days. =) Your garden is already rewarding you with hope and newness, and soon with food! Thanks for the Rock Cakes recipe - I always mean to make it, and it's now getting cold, so I think this weekend would be a good time!Susan https://www.blogger.com/profile/09159163720029661287noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5738183327129723042.post-22990325288544289472019-11-02T09:12:16.485+10:002019-11-02T09:12:16.485+10:00I would love to see what the inside of a rock melo...I would love to see what the inside of a rock melon looks like!! Dots said her father called then muskmelons...I haven't heard of them either!! Cully Mae looks so proud to have found a fresh egg!!! What a sweetie and you are so blessed to have some of your grands so near. Your garden is so lovely, even when it is thirsty. Betty is beautiful, but the poor old gentleman looks as though he has been abused. Your quilt is beautiful, but all your work is beautiful. Enjoy the march into your summer as we here in the USA are rapidly sliding into winter and freezing temperatures.Farm Quilterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01670652033638218941noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5738183327129723042.post-12449512023728555302019-11-02T02:17:18.226+10:002019-11-02T02:17:18.226+10:00Hi Jenny,your rockmellons look like our cantaloupe...Hi Jenny,your rockmellons look like our cantaloupe. My dad called them muskmellon. I never heard them called by that name before. Cully May is wearing a pretty gingham dress. I like that color on her. I love this quilt you made.I like the way it looks with the embroiders in the center. I have embroidery patterns of Snow Globes. I wondered how to use them. I think that block may make a pretty pillow. I might just try that and see. November here already. A lot of holidays ahead for us here.<br />I am trying a diet of meat and water for 30 days. It is not at all hard to do after you get through the first couple of weeks. After the 30 days I can continue on with it or I then start reintroduce foods I normally ate to see if I have a reaction to it. It is an easy way to discover food sensitivities. It works well for that. So many things we eat can cause many autoimmune disorders. So I will see how that goes.<br /> Betty is one big Cockatoo. She looks pretty on that post. I have seen them in pet stores, and my neighbor use to have one, but he wasn't as big as Betty is. I like them. I can't imagine them in my back yard,though. A red tail hawk, or noisy crows, owls, or cardinals and turkeys would be common here. All our other birds fly south for the winter. <br />Good blog today. A lot of interesting things to think about.Thanks for sharing your world today.
