WIP Wed.

I'm linking up again with The Needle and Thread Network for WIP Wed.  , I have lots of things on the go as you know but I will just update a couple of things , first off is my crazy patch block , I am working on this in the evenings as my deadline date is coming up fast , not too much left to do though so I am quite confident I can make the time frame. I have to tell you I am really extending my embroidery skills here , I do not have a lot of experience in embroidery just basic things but have enjoyed doing this block .

Remember my weekend adventures , well this morning I cut and washed the apples for the jelly I plan on making, here they are in the pot cooking away .

They are now in the strainer dripping out the juices , that I think is a slow process , drip , drip , drip .:-)

 The larger apples we picked I made some applesauce and we enjoyed a bowl for lunch .

Here you can see the applesauce as well as the four jars of blackberry jelly I made .

On the sewing front , I have the baby quilt sewn and this morning I sandwiched it ready for quilting.I actually need a few more pins but they are in use on another quilt so will have to baste with thread .

I also have a postcard started and will complete that this afternoon as we have a quilt meeting tonight and I want to share the postcards I have received as well as a few that I have made , I would like the guild members to do a postcard swap with another quilt guild , are there any guilds out there that would be willing to swap with us . What I hope to do is get enough members to join in this fun little project then swap with another guild and have a virtual show and tell once all the cards have been received , if  you think your guild would be interested please let me know,thanks . Also a little reminder for those participating in the postcard exchange I arranged earlier on this blog your postcards are to be in the mail today at the latest , hope you enjoyed swapping and look forward to pictures of the cards you receive and thanks for taking part :-)

Ready for stitching . Another thing I hope to get done this afternoon is sew the binding on my Mystery quilt , not sure I will have time but the binding is all ready to go so we will see how much I can accomplish .

So that is my Wednesday , I think I have enough to keep me out of trouble , what do you think ? Enjoy your day and thanks for the visit .
