The blue cotton is already being worked into a knitted scarf for me!
Also note the beautiful antique embroidered tablecloth that my mom gave me as a wedding shower present.
Another project that I've been meaning to blog about (but probably won't do a full post on now that it's so late in the season) is the garden we've kept with my parents. It's been a joy to see such a full garden grow from just tiny seeds. The squash has really taken over this year! We've learned a lot from doing a garden, and have had fun using the produce. Tomorrow I'll be making pesto with my mom, and Wednesday I'll be learning to can tomatoes and salsa with my grandma. Anyway, here's a couple photos of the small harvest we took home with us after a weekend at my parents'.
Acorn squash, watermelon, spaghetti squash, crookneck squash, zucchini, cherry tomatoes, banana peppers, and carrots! |
Look at these crazy colored carrots! |
