Hurry up, Ketchup and Mustard! Part 1 of 6.

Yup, hurry up, Ketchup and Mustard! A little saying I like to say to my kids when we need to get going. Speaking of needing to get going, somewhere between July and November a lot of life happened and I really ended up behind on my Fab Bee blocks. To quote Professor Farnsworth in Futurama, “Good news everyone!” I recently caught up! Well… some what. I still have to do Bea’s December block of stars and recently received Sherri’s rainbow fabric for her January block. Kinda not feeling too caught up anymore but remember my new years resolution. It’s not about git n’ r done, it’s about enjoying myself while I’m doing it.

Just to make sure this isn’t such an epic post I’m going to break it into 5 posts: one for each person’s block. Which makes this post part 1 of 5,  starting with July and Darlene’s Block. Oh and I’ll also be posting my husband’s blocks too. It started out as a joke that we needed a dude in our bee (we also really want one in our guild too but sadly no takers-yet!). When I was telling Chris how I jokingly volunteered him for our bee with all seriousness he said he would do it. Okay, sure then!

For Darlene (July)

This is my block, I don’t know what it is with this block, it’s the second time I’ve done it. The last time it was for the Unscripted bee I was in. I fought it then and I ended up fighting this one too. Although I’m pretty happy with the results. (Whispering, I think I won the fight!)

Lysa's block for Darlene

I like to do a little drawing with each block. I have a little somethin’ up my sleeve with what I’m going to do with them!

TA DA-Chris’s block. I can tell he’s getting addicted slightly, he’s coming home with quilt design ideas! I told him when he’s done his quilt he has to come into our guild to show it off! Don’t you agree! He totally should, shouldn’t he?

  1. Yay, Lysa! Doesn’t it feel good to get caught up? I’m exactly where you are, I have to finish Bea’s star block and then I’m looking forward to making a rainbow for Sherri.

    I love how you’re drawing each of your blocks – so cool!
