Happy Fourth of July All!!!

First, Happy (Bee-lated) Birthday, Consuelo...?! When IS your birthday? Scott's is coming up! ; )

Second, I SEW apologize Lori!!! I'll explain a little later in the post... About the YLI thread. I have a couple blue, & blue/purple YLI's. However, I bought mine in Houston as "used" & they do NOT have the color label on the end. So, while I think 1 may work, I don't actually know it's color name or #. You may certainly come have a look! We ARE home!!!

Jean - look @ you, girlfriend...?!?!?! You get a special award for your commitment & dedication to the Bee!!! : ) Writing from the Beach?! How noble & worthy!!! And, WE ALL wish we were THERE!!! The Snow Hill quilt shop, is it called Pine Needles, or Pins & Needles, or something like that...?! Yeah, I was there, once. It's in the basement of some one's home & it was kind of scary. Enjoy the rest of your vacation!!! ; )

Since we have a Bee calendar, would you Mama's be willing to allow your birthdays to be added? I think it would be-e kind of nice to share. We don't HAVE to do anything special or celebrate, but individually we could send a greeting or something if we'd like...?! Just an idea. Also, any interest in doing a Christmas Polly-anna?

Okay, the reason we weren't home last evening when Lori stopped by for Bee. We had a dog emergency. Yep, Jingle was stung by a bee - again. We took him right over to the Vet, no appointment & no phone call...we just showed up with a dog that had a BIG, FAT, SWOLLEN face! After he threw up, we gave him 50mg of Benadryl, 2 ice cubes & put him in the car. It's a GOOD thing that the Vet is nearby! So (not sew...), Scott, Jingle & I had a b-e-e, just not the sewing kind!!! His swelling is better today, but his left lower lip is still a bit fat. He kind of drools & froths from it a little & he's still rubbing the area every now & then. He's also s-l-o-w from the Benadryl. All in all, Jingle is alright. He gave me a few more gray hairs though! I don't know how you Moms do it?!?!?! They don't have Epi Pens for animals...I'm thinking niche market...?!

Have a safe 4th!!!
Piece, Pam

Lor - I just went to Red Rock Threads & saw that Paris Boutique is in shades of pink. What I have is blue & blue/purple. I don't have any pinks. Sorry!!! If you need to order from Red Rock, would you let me know, please. I have to order white jean's thread by YLI for the cruise. They do NOT charge any shipping fees & send things out right fast! Piece, Pam

okay, I looked again & I DO have one spool that I think may be Paris Boutique...?! The colors look pretty darn close to the Red Rock Threads site. If you come over Lori, you have to bring the Bento Box quilt!!! Piece, Pam

Thanks for the bday wishes everyone! Hope everyone had a good 4th. Sorry to hear about Jingle, but I have to admit I chuckled a little over the bee sting on bee night. Couldn't help it. Hope he feels better soon.

Pam--Thanks for the thread. I think it may be an exact match. I haven't had a chance to sit and sew, but hopefully tonight. I enjoyed our visit!!! I love, love, love your studio.
To those of you who read the blog about bee night, I inadvertently called Shelby, Jingles. I must have been half asleep when I typed(that or my feelings were hurt that I thought Pam was hiding from me when I came over for bee). Just kidding Pam!!!! Hope everyone had a great 4th.
I have some red fabric for Sr. Marita's quilt. Will wash it before next weeks get together!! Also have the black I talked about.
Have a good day.

Pam,
I was just on REd Rock threads. As of June 1st they started charging $3.00 flat for shipping.
Did the hayloft or any of the other carry it? I think I purchased some at Sauders? Road trip or are you going to order some online? Let me know and I'll do the same.
