April 2024

Busy, busy, busy . . .

isn't that the way this time of the year goes?

I've started this quilt,

I'm making it from scraps and sewing it with

the quilt as you go method. 

There are so many other jobs

that this quilt might just

be a full summer project,

but you can see a little progress.

When it's done, I plan on trying

to count how many different

fabrics I've used :) 

Here I'm cleaning out all 

the dead from my blackberries.

And moving my "Big Boy"

scarecrow over to the blackberries

hoping to keep the birds away. 

 

After painting the barn,

I started painting the back fence.

You can see Beulah's tail 

in this photo.  She is a farm dog

and loves to help, but she sure 

gets dirty doing it.

Here's another photo 

of the fence. 

This is one of my favorite canning books.

I didn't have time to put up

rhubarb this year.

So; I gave it away to a friend

with this recipe from the book.

It's a great book,

they don't overwrite their recipes,

they just make them very simple 

to understand.

I bought it on Amazon. 

a few years ago. 

This is my other big chore . . .

Trying to keep this sweet girl

clean.  She loves the dirt 

and has so much fun frolicking

outside.
