Two for One

 Hello Everyone,

What is going to make my A Ribbon Runs Through It block of the month special for Marcus Fabrics?  These cutie patootie little blocks, that's what!

Each month you will have fabric scraps leftover.  So why not make some hexie blocks.  I'm still working my way through the scraps. As of right now, I don't know just how many I will be able to squeeze out of the scraps.  I'm hoping to make about 60 blocks.

These blocks are stinkin' cute!  I've been trying to carve enough time out of each day to sequester myself away in my sewing room and knock out a block or four. 

I will be posting directions for this block when the BOM starts up in January of 2022.  It seems like a long way off, but it really isn't.  Look how fast the first half of this year has already flown by!

Our little community probably tripled in size over the July 4th holiday.  We hunkered down in the cabin and let the out-of-towners fill the community coffers.  It was unreal how many people were in town.  I had to go to the post office to mail Etsy orders Saturday morning.  The normal 15 minute trip there and back was closer to 45 minutes.  Main street was wall to wall people, cars, kids, and dogs.  I don't mind the dogs! 😂

To make matters worse, our little grocery store had a car DRIVE right through the front door of the store.  Luckily no one was hurt.  I guess I didn't get the memo that our market was now a drive thru.

I'm still doing water aerobics every morning at 8:30 with my friend.  I think I'm addicted, and I don't know what I'm going to do when the frost gets on the pumpkins, and the classes end.  I actually bought another swim suit.....a girl has to have variety.  The last suit I bought is so old, the elastic turned to crinkly dust.  This morning I left my sunglasses at home and the glare was quite something.  I knew my crows feet were as crinkly as the elastic on my old suit.  But you know, I like to think of them as starbursts instead of crows feet.  So show off your starbursts every chance you get!

Soon,

Lynn
