‘Da Pears

It’s that time of year again. 

Pear Picking Time

 

But, I’m done…

Almost…

 

(18 qts canned pears, about 1 1/2 gallons pear butter and currently 3 pints of dried pears.)

 

Sunday Afternoon Scrapbusting

Do you have any great treasures hidden in your stash? 

Not sure? 

I wouldn’t know either. 

Mom found a few gems when we moved her sewing room. 

During the move, I did some shopping helped her clear out her stash. 

This past Sunday, I helped myself to more fabric her whip up a few kits, patterns and charm packs.

This pattern is “Crazy Jack” by Pieces from my Heart.  Mom used a “Pumpkins Gone Wild” charm back and her’s will have a Jack-o-lantern face.  Mine uses a “Gobble, Gobble” charm pack and won’t have the face. 

 

 

These almost-finished snowmen are from another Pieces from my Heart pattern.  (Mom—what was the name of the pattern and the fabric you used?)  Mine used a “Holly Jolly” charm pack.

Both patterns were ordered from Fat Quarter Shop and are older patterns, so I don’t see them listed any longer.

Our backyard camping adventure

We decided to camp out this weekend.  But, with Mommy and Daddy too tired to move, we decided to stay close to home.  Really close. 

Just like any good camping trip,

we swam

we roasted hotdogs

we made s’mores (did you know Graham Crackers can catch fire on the grill?)

and we slept in the tent.

Well, until midnight anyway.
