July

 I've had a few people ask for bags, so I am making more.  A friend's father in law just passed and she brought me a pair of his jeans to make her a purse. I took one of mine in to work and two of my younger guy friends wanted one for their wives. I also need to make a baby quilt for another young man I work with who is having his first child soon.  Busy, busy, but that's how I like it. I always want to have a project to do.  I am helping my young neighbor learn to make sourdough. I made a pretty round loaf yesterday and took her a starter yesterday.  I am going to help her in the morning mix up the dough.  I did find time to do some cooking today. I made Joanna Gaines sourdough bagels this morning, and put some pineapple and sugar water in a jar for a (hopefully) refreshing pineapple soda in a few days. Nature's probiotic! I also did the next step in my 16 day sweet pickle recipe.  Here are a few pics of what's been going on around here.....








We also finally got the new piece of furniture for under the TV.  I'm on the fence about it. I like it, but the other one was 36"tall, this one is only 32" and it just feels tiny, even though it is 8" longer than the other one. I guess I'll get used to it.....I do love the glass doors for displaying quilts.
I also hung a couple of quilted and framed blocks, bible verses, in my dining room.
Enjoy the pictures!
