Monday Mom, the kids and I went to pick five five gallon pails of green apples and rescue crabs and some cherries. We made 5 pints of cherry jelly and so far i have 6 apple pies frozen.. I’ve got many more pies to make.. The 1st year i picked apples i cut up and froze them.. well i still have some of those in the freezer so now what I do is i make the pies and the fruit gets all used up over the course of the year all the kids so is take out the the pies. I also make zucchini bread and pumpkin pies instead of freezing the fruit. This year I’m going to make spiced crabs with the rescue crab apples and the rest of the fruit gets made into either juice concentrate and frozen or apple jelly or sauce.
I’m getting so anxious to sew my quilt complete were getting so close…

This block has one template for the center white point. The rest is pretty simple 4 QST and 8 HST.
I trimed the corners of the black patch using the template

On October 1 2019 all patterns will no longer be free.
I live by Mayerthorpe, Alberta Canada.A mother of 3. In my spare time I have 2 loves: Quilting and my horses these work well with the seasons. I started quilting when my oldest daughter was born 25+ years ago. I was making western shirts, when I quilt making those I had lots of bright cotton so I started making quilts. Over the last 17 years I have really gotten into it. I started taking an applique and a free motion class at my LQS. I'm now at the point where I no longer purchase Patterns. I've actually started designing my own. In 2015 I invested in EQ7 Quilt design program. In 2013 I purchased a HQ Sixteen on a 12 foot frame.
