Four Weeks

Woohooo! I only have 4 weeks left until Spring Break. Teaching this semester is going really well as I am lucky enough to have some amazing students, but I'm just sleepy.

I have managed to get some sewing done this week!

Here we have some FMQ on the houndstooth "quilt". I ran out of thread so this won't be touched again for a while. I'm still shooting for having this done in time for A Lovely Year of Finishes: February edition!

I also finished a purse! I followed this pattern.

Here is a fabric shot so you can see all the goodness! Cuckoo clocks, wood grain, sketch, and mustaches: Oh my!

Last weekend, the boyfriend and I whipped up some seared tuna with coconut rice and veggies and had plenty leftover for lunches.

Speaking of lunches, I made another silverware roll-up/mitered corner napkin since my teaching schedule keeps me out of the house during lunch and dinner. I love taking my lunch but I especially love having adorable napkins and silverware pouches to cheer me up.

As it turns out, blackberries were on sale so naturally I bought a bunch and made some jam. Three are plain blackberry, three are basil/blackberry that tastes like plain blackberry. Next time there will be more basil. In the left background of the photo you can see my sprout garden! Om nom nom, sprouts on EVERYTHING! For a few days we couldn't eat them fast enough to keep up with their growth.
