too many Zukes?

Turns out that taking care of a garden is only the first step.  Keeping up with the produce is the real challenge...never had that problem before.  Today I am making bread and butter pickles.  Most of my previous attempts at canning have been less than satisfactory, sitting on the shelf til we finally throw them out.  I have high hopes for these pickles. Fingers crossed.  Then there is the zucchini......

When I started quilting, I thought it would be a good way to use up scraps I already had.  As with any hobby I quickly found out that more tools were needed.  Then I realized that more fabric was needed to match what I already had.  Fifteen years later and I am back at the beginning, making scrap quilts to  reduce my stash of stuff.  Thus, I spent 1 hour cutting fabric scraps into 2" strips. This is the first step in a nine patch quilt.  I know this probably doesn't sound fun to you but for me I am embarking on a creative adventure.
