Yay :) you are using your new machine, there will be no stopping you now. have a great day. hugs
ReplyDeleteLove the arty jelly roll race quilt. It has turned out rather wonderful. Glad you are getting to know your machine. Just think of all the new stuff you will create.
ReplyDeleteA vacuum sealer is on my wish list. Hate blanching.
Stay cool today.
well done with the quilt... and a good reason to try out the new machine.... great idea to do the beans in portion sizes...

It's so much fun to see fresh beans from your garden when we in Minnesota are a little chilly (minus 35 degrees farenhit) up north and ground white with snow. I think it should be called Quilt Season instead of winter!!
ReplyDeleteEnjoy..
Loving your jelly roll quilt and such a kind heart you have... now do you just vacuum seal all your vegie garden produce with out blanching? that would be so much easier than the old method and is it as fresh as it goes in once opened and thawed? silly questions but I have just never thought of that idea before xxx
ReplyDeleteLooking good Shez.xx
ReplyDeleteHello Shez,
ReplyDeleteGreat to see you using the new machine. Those beans look great, just love beans.
Happy days.

Nothing like home grown veggies. Your quilt looks good Shez. Sharyn:)
ReplyDeleteYum! Fresh beans, Shez, you are lucky I'm not around, they wouldn't make it to the freezer!
ReplyDeleteHugs - Lurline.
Glad you are using the machine. Your quilts look great. That's good that you don't have to blanch the beans. Thanks for encouraging me to join Mrs Martins Shop swap. I am going to love it. Hugs....
ReplyDeleteI'm a peas kinda girl...so those beans look great sealed up...lol! Happy you tamed the NeW beast and it's behaving itself. Nothing like a new toy to inspire!!! :)
ReplyDeleteGreat work on your new machine. Yummy beans too.
ReplyDeleteGlad you're enjoying your new machine, you'll soon find your way round it, the more things you make
ReplyDeleteGorgeous quilt and aren't Bernina's great! I too like the idea of vac packing but don't have one lol. This year there will not be much to preserve from the garden due to fruit fly. No fruit and I haven't done much with other vegies after finding the horrible things. No sense watering plants just to feed fruit fly maggots.
ReplyDeleteI think it is wonderful that you are enjoying your new machine. The quilt will be great.
ReplyDeleteOh yum, fresh beans. So pleased your new machine is now purring along, and the quilt looks amazing. Love these jelly roll quilts, they are such fun.
ReplyDeleteThat machine is getting a good run for a very good cause. Those beans look delicious and healthy.
ReplyDeleteThe quilt looks fantastic Shez.....James uses his machine all the time....best thing he ever purchased I think..
ReplyDeleteA beautiful quilt Shez. Love the fabrics. And all those beans! They look delicious however I must say I don't like them cooked. Just raw -yum!
ReplyDeleteJust beautiful Shez :)
ReplyDeleteYour quilt for chookys appeal is looking gorgeous shez - such a fantastic effort
ReplyDeleteGood on you for using the new machine! I watched a video about sewing the 'Jellyroll race' quilt...amazing! so many metres! lol
ReplyDeleteYou are allowed to stitch elsewhere on your quilts...you won't get in trouble :)
ReplyDeleteFantastic quilting Shez and all for a good cause too! Love that you can freeze the beans without blanching....saves heaps of time!
ReplyDeleteQuilts look great and I am sure the beans will taste wonderful.........
