A Quiet Weekend At Home

Usually we spend week-ends catching up on things we need to do around the house like yard work or laundry. Or we head out somewhere like the city or geocaching. But every now and then it's nice to have a quiet week-end at home. I can't say we did anything all that exciting and spectacular but that's ok too!

 Saturday, Jon made some pies using some of the many pounds of apples we acquired. He made it look neat with a lattice top. He was pretty proud of his work.

 

 

 While he was doing all that I was working on a project of my own. I've noticed some pins on pinterest for t-shirt rugs. I couldn't get the one site to open so I looked at the picture and guessed how it was done. A lot of Big Bang Theory was watched! I spent 4 hours cutting old t-shirts, rolling it into t-shirt yarn, and braiding them into one continuous rope. Any guesses how long it turned out to be? We measured! It's exactly 44 feet!! My next step is to hand stitch it together into a round rug but somehow I have lost all my needles! How did that happen?! So I'll have to wait to finish it.

 

On Sunday I participated in a twitter tea party! It was really fun chatting with other bloggers as we sipped on our tea of choice. A bunch of these lovely ladies had some delicious things they were snacking on and were all dressed fancy like. Me... I didn't quite plan that far ahead. Plus I had just rolled out of bed, showered, and was eating breakfast!

The etsy shop was pretty busy this week-end!! Yay!! Ooo! I watched the pilot for that new show The New Girl. So great!! I can't wait to watch the rest of the season! I also read a whole book but I'll mention that in a book post perhaps?

How was your weekend? What did you do?
