This blog is mostly about my various sewing projects, but other aspects of my life will tend to creep in from time to time.

A different kind of productivity
We have been relaxing these past few weeks, and I have learned a new skill: making jelly! Eight jars down, four to go. I am making grape jelly with the grapes from my grandfather's back yard, which is really a lovely feeling.
That brings back memories! The house I grew up in had either 10 or 12 grapevines so we made fresh juice and jelly every year after giving away bags of grapes to all the neighbors.

Oh, that's wonderful! I've been having some trouble getting my jelly to jell properly, but practice makes perfect, I suppose!
