Summer Celebration Blocks

Hello! I feel like it is really summer! The sun is out, it's hot and the trees and grass are lush green from all the rain. Just makes me happy! Hope the weather is good where you are! I had fun sewing today. I'm working on several things that people are buying (woo hoo) and I'm still having insomnia. What is with that? I guess it's my age or something. Anyway, last night (or early this morning) I made a couple of Summer Celebration bom blocks that I already had cut out. Here's the North Umberland block:

and the Diamond Star block:

And, if anyone is interested, I have only one more bundle of orange fabric left. Twelve fat quarters for $21.50.

Email me if you are interested at bev@44thstreetfabric.com. Guess I'll go try to scrounge something for dinner. I saw a recipe for fried okra on Pinterest. Of course, being from Oklahoma, I don't need a recipe for okra. It's getting harder and harder to find it in the store.Anyway, I've always loved it with a cornmeal crispy crust. I always add chopped green onion, diced potatoes and diced tomatoes to the cornmeal mixture and fry them all together. I also love baked zuchinni sliced with tomatoes, green onions and cheddar cheese. I miss having a garden. Do you have a favorite summer recipe? Now I'm hungry and am going to go find something to eat. That will make Lola happy! XO from Bev

Little Quiltsong said...: You always have the brightest blocks. Beautiful. Still have insomnia? Try writing your thoughts down when you wake up in the wee hours of the night. It worked for me, my book is still empty - I guess, just the thought helped me sleep through. This solution was doctor prescribed. Anyway, worked for me! Hope it helps you.; June 7, 2015 at 5:36 PM

To All My Dogs Who Have Gone On Before Me

An Important Personal Message

My dear friends - Have you noticed that the world seems to be getting more and more evil and corrupt? Have you ever wondered, assuming that Revelations is true, where we are time-wise and what will happen in the last days? At the bottom of this page, there is a 7 minute video that has no narration, just Bible facts about the sequence of events and where we might be. Of course, some of you won't think this is important, some of you might look at the video to see what the Bible does say and some of you may be offended and unfollow me. I personally believe that time is short. We are at 30 seconds to midnight. Things are coming this year that will affect the USA. Watch or not. I mean no offense. If I believe there is something to warn you about and I don't do it, I will be held accountable. I care about what happens to all of us. In love!
