It is berry season up here in the great Northwest. Today I picked up a full crate of blackberries and raspberries, and two crates of strawberries. All of the berries, with the exception of 6 pints, are going into the freezer as whole fruit. The six pints of strawberries are sliced and going into the dehydrator as of just a few moments ago.
While I am waiting for the fruit to get frozen enough to put into freezer bags, I am working on my UFO #4 (read more here about it if you are interested) project by getting it quilted. I am just doing some straight line quilting, mostly stitch in the ditch work.
Later this evening it will be back to the berry harvest as I will be picking blueberries then freezing and drying them tomorrow morning.

As you can see, half of the above flat is in the dehydrator below. Smile.

Some spaces, like the center of the stars, I am quilting an "X", and will do some shadowing inside the trees, but nothing to fancy, as it is a simple kind of wall hanging that calls for some simple quilting.
