It's HEE-ERE!!!

sorry, that was yelling...

But I am excited!

Awhile ago I had ordered some floss and threads

and they came to my front door...

delivered on Saturday, maybe Friday...

(which, if you recall, was a very busy time around here...)

Anyway, there were some back orders thrown in, too...

CHECK IT OUT:

sorry, yelling again...

So, this afternoon,

while insulation was being pumped

into the attic of the house and

things are really discombobulated

what with moving everything

from the attic and attic accesses

and piling stuff decor out of the way of the insulation crew,

and as most of the catering stuff couldn't be put away,

as it goes into the closet/pantry that is also attic access

I decided that I needed to do something constructive...

and, I couldn't get to the quilting machine,

so

what's a gal to do?

I pushed my way past a few guys in dust masks

and cut a 51 by 14 inch piece of fabric and did some tracing...

Then I got out my handy-dandy box of 64 crayons

and I started this project!!!

[Just what I needed - to start something else :)]

I pencil-traced and then colored with my crayons...

It was very soothing -

during all of the insulation/construction noise... 

I was quietly constructive, too.

And, then I stitched...

and then I stitched.
