I’ve been keeping myself busy with two of my favorite things this week! Working on some quilt blocks and plenty of pickleball (almost every day, actually! 😂).
I’m also working on some new tutorials for y’all, so I’ve been spending time behind the scenes getting back to video production & editing.
Lots of fun stuff happening around here. Let me fill you in…

✨ CRAFTY GEMINI WORK
I’m almost done with the tutorial on how to add a quilt block to a sweatshirt. I made a Sawtooth Star block last week and I loved it so much I decided to make a few more. Not sure what I’ll use them for but maybe a table runner or wall hanging.
I’ll let you know once its posted.

✨ COMMUNITY SERVICE
The event space we host our senior events at isn’t available this week due to another event so our weekly community service events are on hold until next week.
But we are busy planning our December field trip for the senior citizens. Last year we took a bus full of seniors to see the Night of Lights in St. Augustine, FL. It’s our favorite trip of the year!

✨ IN THE GARDEN
We harvested the Auyama (West Indian Pumpkin) that was ready. Also, probably one of our last pepper harvests this season. The weather is supposed to cool off into the 40s next week. Brrrr!
We are behind planting the Fall/Winter garden but I chose to wait because the soil temps are not cool enough for planting my carrots and other cooler weather crops. It’s been in the high 80s here still and the bugs are in full effect! I’m looking forward to cooler temps so we can grow more greens!

✨ This Week’s Favorite
My husband and I participated in a Pickleball Rookie Rally and brought home some bling! We played 6 games each with a different partner and it was so much fun! Brandon took home silver and I got gold! As you know I recently started playing pickleball and it’s safe to say I am obsessed! I’m glad to have found a sport my husband and I enjoy playing together. We even play with our teens on weekends.

Chat with you again next week!
