Granddaughter Sleepover with Guest Writer Miss K

Peach/blueberry crisp oven ready

Hi, this is Miss K, and I had the pleasure of a sleepover with my Papa and Gran. I'm writing the post today while my Gran recovers from knee surgery.

For lunch Papa made us BLTA (Bacon Lettuce Tomato Avocado) sandwiches with chips. It was the perfect lunch! I baked a yummy Peach and Blueberry Crisp recipe. The recipe turned out to be super easy to make. It was delicious! If you have any peaches and blueberries, I would suggest this.

Marking the pieces

Gran taught me how to make curvelets, picking through all the colorful scraps, and finding pieces that were the right size. They were so easy and fun to make using templates and extra scraps! We used a thin needle and small stitches. We don't know how they will be used; but, they are fun to make. . .well, the small stitches are hard! I like the gluing part though! I showed my sister how to make them too.

Cutting the pieces

After we watched a show, we had an appetizer of tater tots and an entree of Gran's famous chicken noodle soup made by Papa! It was amazing and very filling! We next had our crisp with ice cream and all I can say is it was great.

Teaching Miss J where to place the glue

Go Beavers! We turned on the Beaver football game. Miss J and I went to bed just after the second half. That morning we woke up and had pancakes, bacon, and orange juice. Our mama came around ten to pick us up. I had an amazing time!

The first three curvelts before trimming and pressing

Goal number four on Gran's October list was to share the information about a new handwork project. Gran wanted to link to Alycia at Finished or Not Friday, Frédérique at Patchwork and Quilts and to Cynthia at Oh Scrap.
