    Beautiful ladybug blocks came home today from Abby's Mom and TheMamaHauser. Chewboo, your block came back to me because somehow my tired old eyes misread your street number. so out it goes again tomorrow!
    Elizabrat, thanks for the headsup on April, I wondered why she had been so quiet lately. She is a very special lady. So are you, so enjoy your mystery "gifts" and thank you for always making us laugh.
    Oh- didn't you know that kittens find you, not the other way around? First they find their way into your heart, then your car, then your home, then your lap. Don't forget pictures.

    Red face update

    Got 7 more quarts of stewed tomatoes done last night, finished the baby quilt for customer, and cleaned another quart of strawberries and put in freezer. This morning started my marathon of sewing yippee!!! Mailed blocks today to lovingisabella 2 for the rubies group, nanakathy55, nygal for rubies, annaquilts, scrapper, and pinklotus. They are on their way home. Hope you all like them. Received the most beautiful blocks in the mail today. All 3 of you put so much time in them, I just can't thank you enough. They are truly wonderful.

    And the baby quilt for customer[ATTACH=CONFIG]361090[/ATTACH]
    Tomorrow- I only have 8 envelopes to go, but am missing F8's from 1000projects, areinn, lv2sew2011 and marcialee. From the rubies group only ctmhjenn. Can't tell you how happy I am with my blocks that I have received, thanks all of you, and I am so glad I can see daylight through the stack of envelopes

    Jaba, I can't wait for you to get the block I sent you! I am keeping my fingers crossed that you like it!
    Elisabrat, hey girl I have a new something heading your way... I am sure it is going to really "Bug you" hehe

    I received a squishy from Daisy, beautiful fabric, have I seen this fabric before??? might just be similar to a previous boom!

    We ran in the heat today, the mornings are nice and cool but I am not awake enough, so I am suffering with hot afternoons instead. Tomorrow morning I am going to go and run bright and early... That is my story and I am sticking to it! Hubby goes with me, he picks up trash and recycling, I told him the county should hire him he cleans the park almost every day!

    Going to go and work on the last two blocks to go out... Everyone that sent me fabric should have a block heading there way except Daisy and Tam Moo. I am going to post update in Pearls group also. I think I have one F8 still in my hand that needs some love and attention, Cuppy. I will get these three done and then wait for the rest of the F8's to come to me~


    OH my I got the Fabulous thread I ordered today from UPS... I just love the cool new colors I got! time to go play with my embroidery machine.

    Judy, I have another block headed your way, one of your fabrics got caught in the machine at the PO. It was pretty mangled, but the fabric was fine. I will be sending it in the morning. It is an autumn leaf print. I love the block I made for you. I am having camera issues again so please send a picture when you get the block.

    I got a Digital camera for my 50th birthday and it is on it's last leg... I suppose I should not complain it has lasted 6 1/2 years! remember the good old days when you bought something and it lasted a really long time! I miss that!

    But if technology never died, the corporations would never make money. The average PC is meant to only survive about 5 years before it becomes fully obsolete - I have a professor who swears that the computer designers intentionally manufacture things in such a way that they can guarantee a replacement within 3 years. And with the way technology keeps improving upon itself (and getting cheaper in terms of what you get for what you pay compared to what you got for what you paid 5 years ago) then it is ridiculous NOT to purchase new each time.

    Marybeth you mean as in done except for wht is outstanding in arriving? that kind of done?? flopping on floor, heart failure, your teasing right? I sure hope so, hanging head now (no it is isnt a good look on me sorry)..I almost got one done today sheesh. I had so much to do company coming, someone quit so its rescue time for phones and gate entry and then of course that kitty that followed me home. He is going to be tough to photograph being so dark here is one you can see he is NOT settling in at all. Poor guy must be traumatized. uh huh.. he doesnt even notice we hve other cats they are less thrilled he could care less no names he is a smoke black kitty half his fur is silver underside and if you brush his hair back the wrong direction its all silver.. it turns more silver as they grow older. Since he is indoor he will stay that darker black not turn the cherry black that outside ones do.. i already love him. He is giving out kisses like there is no tomorrow. I can take that
