Great Giveaway

Here is a blog site for a wonderful giveaway. It ends May 26th.

All of these gals were generous in their giving, and there is plenty here for you to make an apron or two, or something along these lines. The one primitive fabric shown here was actually hand stamped -- can you believe that????? --- and has been heat set, so it is washable. Other items include coordinating fabric with floss to match, hand crocheted trim, buttons, pins, thread, vintage apron pattern, sewing notions, vintage linens, and a handmade hussif (needle case).
I’m sure this will be a great prize for anyone who loves to sew, or for a beginner just starting out!

Just got back from a 4 day trip to Florida. My granddaughter made her 1st communion.

Our short trip to the beach was wonderful, but the weather was still just a little cool. The kids had fun swimming the hotel pool though.

The summer squash is just coming in and so are the pickling cukes. I hope I can find some good recipes for both. I made a squash & crawfish cassarole last night for supper. We also had fresh green beans with potatoes. Everyone enjoyed the good veggies. I even made a strawberry pie with our own strawberries.

I started some bread and butter pickles and will post pictures when they are done. Hopefully they will taste good as I haven't used this recipe before.
