August NewFo

August has been the busiest month ever!  The garden has been producing so fast we can barely keep up with it.  And with the Hexie Blog Hop I had to get busy and make a few projects which also gave me a head start on Christmas gifts.  So today for the 2013 NewFo Challenge I have lots of photo's to share. 

I am almost finished with this Schnibbles Quilt called Canasta.  I made it out of 30's reproduction fabrics and the baskets blocks are 5 1/2 inches.  It took me a lot longer than I thought it would.  I love it though.

My Grand daughter Fiona has been working on this teddy bear for several weeks.  She picked out the fabric and made it mostly herself.  I am so proud of her and hope she continues to have the desire to sew and create.  Fiona is 11 and the oldest of my 8 grand kids.  

Garden Produce

Bottled Banana Squash for Pies, went into the freezer.

This quilt is for Amy my niece.  She lives in Idaho.  My mom and I went to visit them early August and she picked out the fabric and pattern.
