We pulled out the rug and it was filled with black mold. The rug under it was filled with black mold. Allergic to mold so my head started to spin and I had to leave. He has washed, and sprayed it with everything except bleach , lifted it up off the floor below and used the wet vac. Still can't get near the area, which means the entire living area. So sewing will be on hold here.
Of course I escaped to the beach with a book and enjoyed the sunshine. The local Brewery a mile down the road is having a band and serving tacos outside with their beer tonight, so I will have to go there for dinner. Always turn a bad situation to a good one!!

TG ...that's a real bugger for sure! Those kind of surprises really send me into retro-grade! Just think how much better you're going to feel when all is back to normal (I am not sure what normal is, but life is supposed to return there eventually
...so I am told! ).

Got swept away from the sewing room.....to pick beans from the garden! Heading back in this evening to finish TG's block.
Loving these beautiful blue and white blocks!
Flowergirl...nice find! And you were a nice find for it, too! I am sure the person who stitched it would love knowing it found an appreciative home!
Kass, you make me chuckle I can't wait to see what you will post next.....love your creativity. Your fabric is talking to me. Searching the world-wide Web for just the right fabric.
Love all the blocks -Jaba - you are fast! ...a high speed Boomer!

Glad you like your blocks ladies! Been sewing this afternoon, next week will be nothing. I have to finish getting my quilts ready for the Park County Fair...didn't enter last year and regretted it. Get some of my long-arm quilting requests from that and after all it pays for me to buy fabric. That's got to be a plus.
Anyway ladies, these were the next ones out of the bag:
LJdugas- True Blue Block[ATTACH=CONFIG]523647[/ATTACH] mollymunchkin- Turkey in a Straw( thought this would be the death of me)[ATTACH=CONFIG]523648[/ATTACH] LuckyALTZ - star and block and thank you for the deco pin, love it[ATTACH=CONFIG]523649[/ATTACH] Kassaundra-star puzzle[ATTACH=CONFIG]523650[/ATTACH] joanelizbay- split 9 patch...your stripes were a little bit of a challenge [ATTACH=CONFIG]523651[/ATTACH] and finally Flowergurl- Toad in a Puddle block[ATTACH=CONFIG]523652[/ATTACH] Hope these will work for you ladies. Done for today, going to have a little "toddy" and Bar-B-Que
