BOM8 and a bit of Red Velvet

FQS Mystery BOM block 8 received, cut and stitched in record time!

Red Velvet flimsy all pieced and ready for quilting; I finished it a few days ago but it's either been pouring with rain or windy as anything. Finally today it's a comfortable 20 degrees with little wind and no rain. The top border is bugging me a bit; it's the only bit where the pattern on the fabric doesn't match well...

The bountiful homegrown produce continues; I've been gradually picking all the onions (used some in a lovely paella last night), more little tomatoes, some sneaky potatoes that were growing in the compost, and white nectarines. The nectarine tree is only little (shorter than me), but has had way more fruit than we could possibly get through, especially as it's been quite hot so it all ripened at once. Some made its way into a lovely tart though.
