I had four goals for the week: process 100 pounds of peaches, catch up on bills, skin all the ripe tomatoes, and get my brother's top to a flimsy stage.
I came close. By the end of today, I may just accomplish my goal, as I have one seam left to pin and stitch. It goes nicely with this month's colors, I think, since it has black, grey, and dark blue. Initially, I wasn't sure what to do with these fabrics, but I'm quite happy with how the quilt is turning out. Quilting may stump me, but I have a bit of time for that.

Sounds like another busy week at your house! Your brother's quilt is turning out well. Good luck getting that last seam sewn!
Fresh peaches and tomatoes - yum!
Gorgeous quilt top coming together, too.
Just bought some peaches at the local fruit and veggie stand. They are so great this year! After eating my fill, I'll have to see if there are any left to do some baking. Your brother's quilt looks wonderful.
Peaches sound awesome, but 100 pounds is a LOT. What a lucky brother! Great top--hope you finished that last seam!
Wow, that's a lot for one week. The quilt looks awesome!
looks great! we've been crazy busy here, too! 2 farmer's markets a week, plus all the regular garden work is just about killing me. I 've done some red sewing, but no ironing, and no posting, either... maybe this week...
That is a simply huge pile of peaches. You don't say what you had to do to them - chop them? prepare for storage? Whatever, that is a big job on its own.
Well done on that quilt top. It is looking great.
Amazing that you found any time to sew with all the garden and kitchen work to do.
Wow, what a nice balance of chores/projects for the week. I bet the smell of all those peaches is heavenly!
Busy hands indeed! I hope you got to take a minute to sit down and eat a nice ripe peach. 8)
I can't believe you found time or energy to sew after processing 100 lbs of peaches. Beautiful quilt top. You go girl!
