Hi Julia:
Heard that you aren't feeling too well currently.  Are you taking care of 
yourself?  I hope the pressure of getting everything moved to the new place 
isn't too much for you.
TH > trying to do a tree skirt for christmas and have 8 stars (various)
Well, the tree skirt is finished.  The crazy block went into the center, and 
the one star which wouldn't lay flat, got cut diagonally in half.  I used a 
dark blue with white dots on (like snowflakes) for the sashing and binding, 
and a holly/evergreen print for the backing.  About the only thing I still 
want to do to it is to make some ties for keeping it closed when it is around 
the tree.  But no hurry on that.
JS> Ohhhhh this sound soooo pretty!!!!!  I am sure you are going to
JS> figure it all out and have it done well before next Christmas...
I even named it - Crazy Christmas Stars.  I am really pleased with it.
Then after I finished this, I launched right into a flag from Log Cabin 
blocks.  The upper left field is blue with yellow pinwheels, and the stripes 
are red and white diagonally.  It is totally out of scraps (except the 
backing), and it is really pretty.  I totally enjoyed that one.  Then this 
weekend I finished up a pair of jeans for my DH that I started several months 
ago.  I have to make his work clothes as the uniform place doesn't have sizes 
that fit him comfortably.  This makes the 4th pair of jeans I have made for 
him (and 6 shirts previously).  I also make his dress pants, and have fabric 
for 3 pair in the sewing room, should the desire strike me.
I am not happy with my kiddo tonight.  He came down a few weeks ago and 
applied where I work.  I put his application in front of a supervisor who 
decided he wanted to interview him today.  Guess who didn't show up.  Makes 
me look bad.
Well, I better close.
Teresa
