Bakers' Table....It took me three years to find this. And yes that is a real pumpkin. I just LOVE pumpkins and try to keep them on display as long as possible.

Dough Bowl and Quilt that I made for my kitchen table in the

colours of my kitchen. I have my kitchen done in

Tans, Cranberry, and Liberty Blue.

Another picture of the Quilt on the table. I take it off

when we eat, but it looks so nice with all of my kitchen colours in it.

BUTTERY SIGN

I just thought I would post a picture of the sign I just finished. It is a special order for a customer and I will be shipping it off to the USA this week. I like the way it turned out and I might even have to make one for myself.

QUILTS

Seeing Quilts were listed on A Primitive Place as one of the 10 things we like to collect, I thought I would post some pictures of a few of the ones that I have  done.

This pattern is called "Wacky Stars"

CRANBERRY BANANA LOAF

This is a great recipe. I just made this to take to our Quilters' Guild meeting tomorrow. Our group is in charge of refreshments for our break this month. It is a quick easy recipe.

TIP: If you have any over ripe bananas, just peel them and put into ziplock bags and freeze them.

Take them out for a recipe that calls for them and thaw them out and mash them.
