Look at these beautiful turnips we picked tonight! Oh, and a radish...
We were so surprised the turnips were this large. They were in the cold frame we had planted in February and most of the stuff has already been transplanted into the garden. So yummy, peeled and sliced with a little sprinkle of sea salt.
My big project this past weekend was sanding and painting the shower surround since some of the paint had been peeling from it. (Who comes up with this kind of material!?) We would really like to remodel the whole bathroom and thus didn't really feel like putting in tile which would be the right way to fix this.
Here is the before...
Ugly, huh?
After scraping, sanding, removing old caulking, and washing down the walls really well, the paint job could finally commence. Wow, what a difference!
The Man re-caulked the edges and voila, it feels like a new shower!
My other project this week has been to work on a Trip-Around-the-World quilt. I've got the center done and decided to machine quilt this part first, then add 15 inch borders all the way around and continue the quilting.
The Machine Quilting Large Quilts on a Domestic Machine class (I think that's what it was called) from Craftsy had this suggestion and I thought it sounded like a good one to try. So far it's working out really well!
The weekends never seem long enough. Or maybe I just have too many things I want to do...
