Just Peachy!

What have I been doing that's crafty lately? I don't think I even sat down at my sewing machine last week!

This is what I've been busy with instead, besides getting the kids off to school, picking them up, not sleeping because I'm stressing about my kids classes, getting them to guitar and scouts and on and on.

Peaches were a great deal last week! So, I made 7 pints of freezer jam and canned 10 quarts!


Easy and delicious and the shelves are stocked!

Check off the list!

I've been checking things off my "better finish these projects" list! I got a new computer a few months ago and it needed a case--- you know, by chance I do go somewhere it won't get scratched up...I found the pattern HERE!

I found this wall shelf at the goodwill. Super cute and only 4 dollars. But, kind of ugly... no worries, we have spray paint in the garage!

BEFORE
AFTER
I thought about changing the baskets but I couldn't make up my mind so, they stayed.

Awhile ago Morgan asked her Grandma Jo if she could start a quilt. She went through Grandma's scraps and starting sewing. It's been a long while but it's finally done. She's quite proud... mom had to help out with a lot...she wanted it done as well.

Sydney kept getting in the way of the first picture! Morgan wanted to show it all off on her own. Way to go Morgan!

I also made a little something for a little something but I can't show a picture of it yet because it will ruin the surprise!

Love checking things off my list! Although it seems the list always gets longer as I go....
