Everyday Things


When I was taking pictures of the tablecloth below I saw the bread on the counter.  So here is a picture of bread!  I have decided it is harder than I thought to take pictures of food. (I'll keep practicing!) In regard to the bread I have started adding ground flax meal and oatmeal.  I still want to try some of the no knead artisan bread.  There are a couple of books I've seen that sound good.  When I learn how to put a link to one I will:)


This is the tablecloth project.  The top originally was a plain linen rectangle tablecloth.  It is a natural linen and I always like linen but several family members always thought it looked worn out, strange etc.  Anyway it didn't really fit the table as it is oval. So after I had put it away for awhile I finally pulled it out one day and cut it to fit the top and used some sheer fabric (so you could still see the table) for a slightly ruffled side.  It is an improvement but it has some trouble with it rippling at the ends.  This may be because I didn't stay stitch the curves.  I have some other fabric that I may try this same idea with so it will probably show up here someday.  Keep sewing!
