ReplyDeletePickling is on my mind at the moment. I never thought green tomatoes would be worthwhile pickling? I'm going to give radishes ago this week hopefully.
ReplyDeleteLovely pics this week Zara...and don't you just love cat's tootsies!! xxx
ReplyDeleteCute photo of the little kitty paw. Regards Kathy A, Brisbane, Australia
ReplyDeleteLooking forward to seeing the new dress. Are you going to use the tablecloth for its intended purpose, or turn it into something else? I can never seem to cut into my tablecloths even though I buy them intending to!
ReplyDeleteI can't wait to finish the dress and share some pics on my blog
DeleteThere are a couple of small stains that didn't come out with a wash so that makes cutting it up a fair bit easier. I find it hard to cut them up though, especially the embroidered ones that have had so much work put into them.
Maybe you could go through your stash and inspect them for any small stains or holes and cut into those ones.
