More soap

I have this great customer who when I had my soap & skincare business used to buy from me all the time. She still does. About every year and a half, she calls me wanting some more soap. She really likes the scent of Cool Water Man & Woman, but I can't find the Woman's anymore, so I make it with the Men's. So I make her up 2 batches in my medium mold. This mold makes about 12 pieces. Here are the new soaps I made for Jodi.

Have a great weekend :)

New soap

My friend Rhonda wanted me to make another soap for her mom for Mothers Day. It's another Lily Of The Valley. She wanted it a little scrubby, so I added poppy seeds to it and a sprinkling on top.

New ripple blanket

I was working on the ripple blanket, and as I was looking close I could see the last of the rows I was working on were not so ripplie. So I took it all undone. I was bummed, that was hours of work I had put in on it so far, but it didn't look right.

Then I started a new blanket. I think where I went wrong was the stitches on the sides. It's looking good so far.

Yummy dilly asparagus

I had a chance to buy a case ( 28 lbs.) of asparagus from the local food co-op we go to. My hubby has been wanting to try some dilly asparagus. We do the dilly beans & wanted to use the same recipe and can the asparagus. So we got all the stuff we needed and canned it this morning when we got home from the co-op. I am way excited to try it out, I bet it's yummo!!!

New crochet blanket

I have been wanting to try my hand at making a ripple blanket. I just love those ripples. So I went searching and found one I really like over at Attic 24. I have made her stuff before & it is awesome. Here is the pattern I am using.  The pattern is called neat ripple. Here is what I have made so far.

Some more.

So far so good.
