A View From the Sewing Machine
I have been spending a lot of time in front of my sewing machine lately - YEH!!! So I thought I'll show you a view of what I'm staring at most of the day.
Here's a glimpse of some little boy quilts I'm working on. Straight line against the seam quilting. I love quilting this style - it's modern and very effective.
My poor cutting table that is currently occupied by my computer and a bunch of bolts that I have some plans for... ;)
And here's a view of my ironing board currently - It is completely full of stacks like these. Napkin fabric that is all cut and ready to be sewn.
Do you notice a theme here? It seems like all my flat surfaces in my sewing machine is FULL. I think I have maybe a corner of the cutting table that I could probably fit something on. All this makes me fill productive and cluttered at the same time :).

Garden Harvest
I always chuckle a little when I think of the vegetables in the garden as "harvest". Mainly because harvest, to me, sound like such a plentiful word. And trust me, my harvest is not ;).
This is the second year in this garden - well first if you take into account these are NEW vegetable beds because of some ground intruders from my last bed that needed to be completely redone. I am loving it. Three planter boxes and a whole lot of work later, I have my first tomato harvest - 3 Early Girls and 1 Roma. I also have a few zucchinis and even a handful of green beans.
As you could see from the picture above, 2 of the zucchinis are tiny. I didn't get a chance to pollinate those by hand. If you don't get honey bees in your garden, you would understand :). Articles such as this will go over the importance of having to hand pollinate such plants as zucchinis if you too find yourself with stunted zucchinis.
I also have a couple of rows of basil growing. I already harvested it once and had enough to make pesto for the whole family :). Nothing like home grown plants!
I'm hoping to get a second round of vegetables in the garden this year. Maybe another round of green beans and is it too late for broccoli???

Also in the garden are a small pepper plant bearing a few little peppers.
