Making, Crafting, Creating... aka Whatcha workin' on?

This isn’t my own work (I wish)! We happened to be in Paducah, KY over the weekend and stopped at the National Quilt Museum there. Amazing stuff! Here are a few of my favorites – mostly close-ups to show the intricacy. These are all quilts!

Jack has bloomed but turned their back on us. Husband says they are snooping on the neighbors. Jack produced a smaller flower than I thought.

I edited the second one, btw.

Harvest of garlic and green beans. This is less than half of the harvest of garlic, with much better performance than last time I grew it. The garlic has been in the ground since October. Beans will keep cropping into September. I should be pulling this much every week all summer long.

Also a volunteer zucchini. Its bigger than the plants I set deliberately.
