MAGPIE'S MUMBLINGS

A blog about my interests, which include fabric landscapes and various and assorted other artsy pursuits and sometimes known to contain mumblings of a random nature.

Over the weekend the main thing accomplished was to make these....

Zucchini relish - a couple jars are
headed for the Christmas box.

And some progress on the latest landscape...

    Relish is one of the best parts of summer!
    The new banner, the quilt is stunning.

      What's even better about relish is it tastes real great in the winter! We'll put more red pepper in the next time we make it so it looks more colourful.

      Hah hah -I won't remember either, but I don't often work with stripes so I'm not going to worry. Haven't done a taste test on the relish yet but it looks good.

    I want to know how one walks through an exhibit of Fenella Elms artwork (second link) and doesn't just swipe their hand over the surface of every single piece of art. I'm not even sure what I'm looking at, but they just beg to be touched, moved, rearranged. Or am I just weird?

      Nope - I get it. I would be SO wanting to touch!! So if you're weird, join the crowd.

    Great canning! The jars make great gifts. I bet you family relish them. Sorry, couldn't resist, lol. I'm pretty sure I'm going to crochet this winter. I need to use up bins of yarn. Your newest barn project is off to a wonderful start.

      LOL - yes my family loves home made relish. Crochet is a good thing to use up lots of yarn quickly....it works up so much faster than knitting does.

Thank you so much for leaving comments! I appreciate you taking the time out of your busy life to talk to me. It's wonderful to know that someone is actually reading my mumblings and even more fun if I can connect with you and visit your blog.
