Barnyard Buddies Blanket

This is the baby blanket I've been working on for a while...that's not completely true, it's been done since Easter I just took my time putting the binding on. I'm not sure whether to keep it as a future gift, or put in a local auction where the money goes to a children's nursery. It's on Etsy right now so if it sells great, and if not I'll have to make a decision in a week.

I need to get a better picture this one is a little dark :-p

Not much other progress. Canning is on pause for now. More tomatoes and salsa to do soon, but not today. So far I have 21 quarts of tomatoes and as many various size jars of salsa. Jason doesn't think any of which is 'hot' enough. Maybe the 3rd time will be the charm.

So this is what I have been busy working on for the past month. Lots and LOTS of new bags. The green one is mine, but I have the fabric to make another one just like it. I am super excited as I added zippers to the inside of the two larger bags. That was the one thing I didn't like about mine, so I may have to buy one :-) They are for sale on Etsy if anyone is interested.

I am still working on binding for a flannel baby blanket. And my Christmas sampler quilt needs binding as well. However my evenings have been taken up with canning and freezing with harvest in full swing so I doubt they will get done till frost occurs. Actually come to think of it I want to put them in a quilt show in Oct....Ahhh I guess I better get to work.
