Industrious...

We've made stuff! I'll show you.
Blackberries for jelly:


Lots and lots of jelly:








Slicing tomatoes to dehydrate:


Basil for pesto(this was the second basil incident):


Colorful compost:


Slicing nectarines:


Stewing nectarines in apple cider vinegar, brown sugar, brown pie spices, rum, and celery seed. Once warm it was allowed to soak overnight and then put on the dehydrator to become candy:


Jerky for Marian's uncle:


And a lot of sewing (I should be all caught up now, maybe even ahead, on my Skirt of the month projects):

Skirt made with a small remnant of red fabric from my childhood and a modern navy cotton


Linen dress made from 2.5 yards of linen that I purchased in San Diego (it looks really short but it's not- shorter than I usually wear but not short)


Poly blend A-line skirt (slightly twisted in photo)


Sheer over black linen


Dotted swiss lined in cotton


There were light weight t-shirt fabric shorts made also and a cotton petticoat/slip, but you don't really need to see that.
