What a fabulous week it's been, with Easter last weekend and ANZAC day yesterday, I have been home quite a lot, which I just love. Yesterday was spent doing a bit of gardening, dog washing, baking bread and quilting, it was just lovely not to have to be anywhere and just stay at home.
I now have the top of the quilt ready for assembly, I just need to pop up to Spotlight on Saturday for some backing material and the bamboo batting and I will probably finish the little quilt on Sunday. I had originally thought I needed about 120 tiny houses to make the quilt the approximate finished size I wanted it to be, but now that I have made all those tiny houses I have found it to be a bit too big. You see it needs to be about the same size as the other little finished quilt as they are for my grandnieces, I can't have one bigger than the other!
1. Added a scoop of worm compost from our worm farm when planting out some seedlings last weekend, this should give them a good head start.
2. Cut another one of our home grown pumpkins then wrapped each section tightly in foil to keep it fresh. I find doing this keeps the pumpkin for a very long time.
3. I also de-seeded and dried all of the seeds from the pumpkin, I know I have way too many but I just can't help myself.
4. Planted out the old pineapple tops from last growing season. I cleaned up the spiky tops by removing any daggy or dodgy looking straps and then "screwed" the spiky top into the potting mix. I now have 7 new potted pineapples to enjoy watching grow and produce new pineapples. The whole process takes about 18 months to 2 years but it's fun and free.
5. Finished the quilt top using up fabric from my stash
Over to you, how to did you save money this week?
