Chicka Chicka Boom Boom Tree...

This is a picture of one of the reasons I haven't posted in a few days. Our daughter, Lydia, the Reading Specialist has become our daughter the Kindergarten teacher due to budget constraints in the North Shore School District. So....Mom and Dad offered to help out with a few things to get her classroom set up. (Plus, I'm getting an education on Kindergarten "stuff"). This is a "Chicka Chicka Boom Boom Tree". It's evidently a story that has to do with the alphabet. She just asked for a cardboard tube that some of my fabrics come on, but we volunteered to try and build her a tree. Came out pretty well, don't you think? Now I am making 28 Kindergarten "chair packs" to put important "stuff" in. It's been a lot of fun!

It was a good week here at Fab-Etc. Jan and I got all of the blocks laid out for a block of the month program we are going to start in late September/early October. It's coming out really well, we think. It's a 6 month program, so at then end of the 6 months you will have a great Spring wall hanging to celebrate the start of the season!

KT alert - looks like the 30 or so bolts of the new Kansas Troubles fabric shipped from Moda on Friday! How exciting! Should be here by the end of the week?

Okay...I am off to make a few more chair packs for the kiddos! Hope you have a fantastic Sunday.
