Two weeks



since we visited. You would think a lot happened in my world but not really.
Is anyone else on this ‘merry’-go-round: Work-Eat-Sleep?
On the sewing front I am still working on ‘School Bell Has Rung’ found on http://chezstitches.com
Well obviously I was NOT proficient at Y seams. To me it seemed like such an easy fix...hahaha. I could never sleep with seams that do not match up and look like this:

So my not so friend Jack was back to visit me. I have fixed that problem and it is back together ready to be quilted. Now on to teach myself free motion feathers. Hopefully next week I will be able to show you my corrected seams.
I harvested the rest of my bounty….

I am thinking of tomato chutney… if I have the ambition.
The big news is I got a new (used) car! Well, Lar wanted a new car to tow our show car…(When it is finished so he can take it to the shows). It was such a great deal I said yes! I really hated that van. Two best things about the new car is it remembers my seat adjustments and it has a keyless starter for those cold snowy mornings!

While at the dealer I saw this:
I will have to have my grandson Daddles make one. Anyone have extra MoPar parts laying around? Maybe I could use parts off my junker Porsche ?????
 

 
 
Pans greasy and icky?
Try this:
Wipe out as best as possible. Set in sink. Put in a dab of dish soap and fill with water. Add a dryer sheet and let soak MORE than one hour, preferably overnight. In the morning rinse out pan, dry, and put away.
Have a great week.

I dehydrate my green tomatoes. In the winter, I like to add a handful of the dried ones into a pot of soup.

Looks like you have been busy - some sewing, new-to-you car, and working on the tomatoes! Does that dryer sheet really work on greasy pans? I've heard of it before, what is the catch?
