I used to love to can apple jelly and applesauce but I haven't done it now for a couple of years. One of my favorites used to be crab apple jelly. On Wednesdays there is a farmers market near where we live and I have been wanting to get a bushel of apples. Lucky SS recipient that may get one of those jellies!

Since you've been encouraging those of us who are new or just reading along to post, I will do so. Don't know why I've been a bit shy about jumping in here .... you're all friendly and won't drag me down into any scary holes, right?
I was excited to receive my SS name. She lives quite a distane from me in a state I've never visited, although I've seen it on TV once a year since I was a child. She's a much more experienced quilter than I am, so it's going to be a challenge finding something she might use or want. I think I'm up to the challenge!
I started sewing and quilting this year after my coworkers gave me a vintage sewing machine (I think the machine and I may be about the same age, ahem). I feel like I'm doing pretty well. I am pleased by what I make and am pleased, as well, by how much better I can sew now than 10 months ago. I love bright colors and combining colors and coming up with my own designs.
Oh -- my moniker here, Likethedog, may confuse some. Yes, I love dogs, but I'm a cat owner ("staff" to four). I called myself Likethedog because I often say that to explain what my last name is.

Well for fear of being held out on wink wink* I will post something. Got my special someone their most wanted item, and I am always looking around as I shop. It's a process! I think I gave my person a good list, maybe toomanyufos has me 
here in Boston the leaves are gorgeous! Well back to my cave to sew for my girls and the swaps!

Here is what I have been up to in the last few days.
[ATTACH=CONFIG]439865[/ATTACH]
Back row are 4 Pints of Apple butter then 4 - 1/2 pints of apple butter, 5 - 1/2 pints apple jelly, 4 - 1/2 pints of Cinnamon apple jelly.
Tomorrow Hot apple jelly and Lime pepper jelly. Most of this is going to our Church bake sale but some will stay here maybe something might end up in the SS box.
Need to get back to sewing!
