I only had a short amount of time to sew yesterday but thought
I should work on the remaining Ima Bee blocks.
I had found a bordered star block I was dying to try out.
The rules were that we had to use med gray Kona for the background and low volume for the star. This one was a lot of work and it is far from perfect but I like it anyway.
I was not really paying close enough attention to this one and
reversed the background and the star colors.
I will probably either make it again or make a different star and send this along anyway.
I need more medium gray though either way to make another star.
I went to see Catching Fire this weekend and it was amazing!!
Can't wait to see it again.
I love this series.
I also went through a ton of boxes.
Both boxes I brought home from my dad's and boxes from my own basement that I will be taking to my dad's on Friday for the estate sale.
I had 9 Rubbermaid containers full of Precious Moments Figurines that I will be selling there!!!
I did keep some but I just have too many and have no real attachment to most of them.
My mom used to buy them and it was a nice gesture but 9 Rubbermaid boxes??
Plus I kept 4 and I think there are a few more in the crawl space under the family room,
but I won't go in there to check (I secretly call it the Hell Hole).
To get into the crawl space you have to crawl through a hole
in the cement wall in the basement and it is all dirt.
NO THANK YOU!
I make hubby go in there when I need something!!
I am ISO this red print by Kate Spain from The 12 Days of Christmas.
I need a yard.
If anyone has it and is willing to swap or let me purchase it that would be GREAT.
If you know a shop that still has it that would be great too.
Hubby and I made pasta from scratch for dinner on Saturday night.
It is so easy to do with the Kitchen Aid mixer attachment!
Now I need a pasta drying rack. He made the sauce from scratch too.
It's great to have a hubby that loves to cook!!
Have a great Monday!
