BEE BLOCKS AND OLIVE OIL

Thanks so much everyone for all the comments on my last post.  I've been quilting this week so am getting a couple more done.  When I felt I needed a break from the quilting, I made the last of my Bee blocks for this month.

Broken Herringbone blocks for the Humility group of do.good stitches





I got together my first P.O.T.C block.  Patchwork of the Crosses is a new to me block made with english paper piecing.


Summer is coming and I love being outside basting hexies in the early morning sun  : )

I've been doing some free motion quilting.  Not the easiest thing for me, but I know I can do it if I just keep yelling trying


Look what came in the mail!!!  It's my month to get blocks for the Mid Century Modern group and I asked the ladies for an arrow block using my tutorial. The top one is from Cindy, and the bottom is from Elizabeth.  I love them!



A few months ago, my daughter in law got me hooked on infused Olive oil and Balsamic vinegars.  The closest shop was over an hour away until just the other day when this shop opened up.


Just look at all the kegs of delicious oils


and the vinegars


They also have syrups and honey made in the province.  I thought I'd give a shout out to this new shop because I'm thrilled to have it here in our City.
My absolute favourite is Blood Orange infused Olive Oil with a Dark Chocolate Vinaigrette.  A match made in Heaven  : )
So if you're local, pop on by and sample some of the flavours. You'll be glad you did!
