Tomatoes, Quilts and a Website!

Hi Everyone!

Strange title? Well, I am so thankful to say that I recently got enough Roma tomatoes to can 14 pints of salsa! Our garden this summer has not been super productive. Next on my list is stewed tomatoes if the plants continue to produce. So that is my little garden story :)



Next is the "quilts" part. My college roommate, Joy, came for a weekend visit and we had a delightful time! I've taken some pictures of quilts she recently made and brought for show and tell. Sadly, my camera does not do her work justice! The first two quilts are ones she made for her daughters and the last one is a "crazy" baby quilt.



Here is a close up - she has utilized chenille along with some fantastic floral prints - it will be so warm and snuggly this winter!





Of course we visited two quilt shops, had a Mexican dinner and chatted about everything and anything. Seems like with roommates that you just pick up where you left off no matter how old you are!

Last of all, I stumbled across this great blog I thought you all might like www.freebiesforcrafters.blogspot.com There are numerous entries so stop by and see what grabs your fancy!

Happy Stitching!
