I am blessed with <span style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue Light', HelveticaNeue-Light, helvetica, arial, sans-serif;">such </span> wonderful great children! I love you all so much!! <div>I have been working on putting in our vegetable garden and doing things outside. The weather has been pretty and it's hard to stay inside. I've been painting a set of rockers that are on the front porch. They looked really bad as all the white had chipped off. I decided they needed a little color. Next is repainting the shutters on the house. <div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiE4hkjE6Is5WBhqPJny8XDf3xxecA3JIkmwr_lVymMIIlH3ewp8CuK20xRNEdSRCgbCKOxVuBOnn5_JkVRUT0NOKbX6tdKd_7w3o6V3mm0CkdV7O-xxjhe3Qu4-eCYrC2w4084fHT4cg/s640/blogger-image--2134622433.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiE4hkjE6Is5WBhqPJny8XDf3xxecA3JIkmwr_lVymMIIlH3ewp8CuK20xRNEdSRCgbCKOxVuBOnn5_JkVRUT0NOKbX6tdKd_7w3o6V3mm0CkdV7O-xxjhe3Qu4-eCYrC2w4084fHT4cg/s640/blogger-image--2134622433.jpg"></a></div></div>mabearhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15802569145035029344noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2668071322640304700.post-17194330463153531492014-01-11T16:19:00.001-06:002014-01-11T16:21:39.869-06:00Snow Dyeing Again<div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiAp6edDrdnz0blmMWy-i7EEJQa31kDMFUr8hXT0X0dfETYIuwc3-wcxEZ2rmr5YRF9LZoMoeMhbe6PF6cMEhn1dCNfH9AZbRWBGO-xeEncRRhqgtLZD8K1Pz-3oD4Azes3l5kAMa0cfA/s640/blogger-image-1099841380.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiAp6edDrdnz0blmMWy-i7EEJQa31kDMFUr8hXT0X0dfETYIuwc3-wcxEZ2rmr5YRF9LZoMoeMhbe6PF6cMEhn1dCNfH9AZbRWBGO-xeEncRRhqgtLZD8K1Pz-3oD4Azes3l5kAMa0cfA/s640/blogger-image-1099841380.jpg"></a></div>We've had enough snow to do some snow dyeing again.

I know it's been a long time since I have been on here. I have had a really busy November. I am trying to build a new web store. <b>Trying</b> is the key word there. Nothing seems to be going right. I have had trouble at every turn. To top it all off, my daughter had a major surgery and my mother-in-law had to go by ambulance to the hospital. Both were on the same day and in two different towns. It was a blessing that my firefighter/EMT husband was at home that day. I took my daughter for her surgery and the hubby went with his mom. Both are home and recovering, but it was a crazy time.<br />
<br />
I thank you for sticking in there with me. I promise a nice Grand Opening Sale.<br />

'Til then shop my Etsy shop!<br />

Theresa has won the fabric bundle. I have not heard back from the 2nd winner yet so, that may come up for grabs again.<br />
<br />
I am in the process of changing web servers so bearhollowquilts.com will not be functioning for a short while. My Etsy shop is still open and you can shop there for now. You will receive a 10% discount on any purchase over $5.00 by using the code <span style="color: red;"> 10OFF </span><br />
<span style="color: red;"><br /></span>

Well today is my day. I guess my pincushion is better fitted to the Wicked Blog Hop. I want to thank Kristen and Madam Samm for hosting the hop. It has been fun.</div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
I have Halloween on the brain and I love to watch The Walking Dead so I decided to use a piece of my snow dyed fabric for my pincushion. I cut a rectangle, sewed together the short ends.</div>
<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Then I ran a gathering stitch around each end and gathered one end tight, then sewed it shut.</div>

I have been going through some of it, washing and ironing it and now I want to get rid of some of it. Here's your chance to get some of my treasures. I can't keep it all--I'm keeping a lot as it is. If you could only see my sewing room--EEK! Actually you can't really see my sewing room because it's piled to the ceiling with all kinds of stuff. Anyway back to the SALE.<br />

Sorry I haven't posted lately. August is always a busy time of year for me. I have 2 children with birthdays 2 days apart in August. My daughter Rachel's birthday is the 15th and my son Josh's is the 17th. We always celebrate them together. When they were little, I always made sure they each had their own cake. I have some wonderful children and I have been blessed with 2 others that I have helped raise from a young age. In all, I have 3 beautiful and special daughters and a handsome talented son. They each have their own special gifts and I love them all dearly.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Well enough of that--sorry I got carried away there. Get to the quilt stuff. I have been washing & ironing lots of my old stash fabrics. You will be seeing some of those starting to pop up on my Etsy site soon. I have added some snow dyed or hand dyed fat quarters there already. I will be working to get them up on <a href="http://bearhollowquilts.com/" target="_blank">bearhollowquilts.com</a> as well.</div>

I added some water to small bowls and added paint to them. I then brushed this on wet fabric. I added some fern leaves and regular leaves (all silk leaves I bought at Michael's). I laid them around on the wet fabric and placed a piece of Plexiglas over the top so the leaves wouldn't blow off. It's always windy at my house. You should have seen me trying to keep them all down and chasing them around when they blew off the table.<br />

We had a great time. My picture seems to be missing something. I think I need to add some trees or something. What do you think?<br />

I've been washing tons of fabric that has been in my basement. It has a musty smell since it's been there for years and years. I've been finding stuff from 1998 and 2000. I am going to be bundling some of it and putting it up for sale. I'll let you know when I do this and where I will be selling it at. My house is going to be like a sauna after I iron all this. Watch for frizzy hair!<br />

Keep on Stitching<br />

I listened to the weather report this morning. They said the wind was going to blow a steady 10-15 mph with gust to 30 mph today. I don't think it really happened. I did not go today because we fought the wind all day Friday and the dust was really bad. I was worried that today would be worse. It wasn't at my house. I don't know if it was in Hamilton. I think I missed going today because I listened to the weather report. Oh well I guess that's the breaks when you do outdoor activities. I did make good use of the day though. I spent it with my youngest daughter, Katy. We did some ice dyeing. It was both fun and productive. I'll put up pictures after it gets finished. I have one that is an ice dyed parfait. Now doesn't that sound interesting. We shall see! <span style="color: red;"> Sale at the shop--15% off everything!!!!</span><br />
Have a good Memorial Day,<br />

LITTLE HOUSE OF GEESE BY GAIL GARBER </h3>
<div>
it is a free pattern available to American Quilter Society members. I think it turned out pretty good. I'm not the best at free motion quilting yet, but I keep trying. My machine would not cooperate with me. I tried every tension setting, different threads, and different needles but I could not get the bobbin threat to stop pulling to the top at least some. Oh well! I hope my swap partner enjoys it anyway. Have a blessed day! Sandy</div>

I got to spend the day with 2 of my daughters. Saturday, Katy (the youngest) and I set up a booth at The Rusty Chandelier in St. Joseph MO. The weather was cold and windy but we hung in there til about 4 pm. We decided to go in and warm up and of course do a little shopping. If you haven't been there, and are in the area, it is well worth the trip. We didn't have time to go into the Jesse James Antique Mall which is just next door. I've been there in the past and know that it is one the the nicer antique malls around.<br />

Sunday, Jessie (the middle daughter) and I went to something called Color and Bottles. It's a painting class held at a bar & grill or winery. You can paint and drink at the same time. We had a lot of fun!! We decided we need to do this as a family. We may have to have a private class. It get pretty crazy when we all get together but, I can't think of a better way to spend the day.<br />

I'm beginning to think it's never going to warm up. Since it's such a nice day to stay inside and sew, I thought I would just keep running a sale at the shop. 15% off everything all week long.<br />

I hope none of you or your family were injured in the bombing at Boston. My prayers go out to all the victims and their families that have suffered from this cowardly act of terrorism. I praise all the first-responders, bystanders and medical personnel who bravely went rushing in to help the injured. I know they helped to save many lives. God Bless America!!<br />
