Now that's what I call a productive week-end. I love doing stuff like that. I'm embarrassed to say I spent the better part of the week-end trying to sew a block of the month block that I totally messed up. I went to the quilt shop twice to get more fabric that I messed up and still didn't get it right. I don't know what happened that I just couldn't get it right. The bad part is that it was only half square triangles and I could do those in my sleep but not this time.

In my defense I also went to my local farm co-op, picked half bushel of tomatoes which I put up 5 quarts of sauce , 24 Poblano chilis of which I turned into chili rellanos for the freezer, 5 eggplants which became a huge dish of eggplant parm, 2 quarts of pole beans, blanched and in the freezer. And I wonder why I am so dog tired after these long weekends!
