The Jack That Came Back
Okay I had to have a little fun with the first post after a couple weeks of.......not getting as much done as I wanted........not actually getting to see my sister she had been called for a job etc. and just could not leave.........however I did camp on the lake in 104 degree weather for most of the 8 days........I did paint a ton of furniture and I did send off all the last of the Union Jacks I had sewn before I left....
I had a very sweet person send a Union Jack throw back because the color in the square was not as pastel as she had hoped. (she is an awesome FB friend and blogger and I did not want her stuck with something she was not 100 percent happy with) The color in the square is an overdyed denim blue that is almost grey blue in color.. My Antiquing buddy Barb (who has been following the Jack Drama....) and I could not get over the irony of the Jack coming back. I had decided not to sew them sold off a bunch of fabric etc. and here it came?? Is that a sign? hahaha the Jack keeps coming back.....

Im so glad you have enjoyed your vacation with the family!! its times like that you will always remember ... Love Tausha
ReplyDeleteWelcome back Sherry!
ReplyDeleteLooks like you and the family had a great time and I'm sure the peace and laughter was exactlty what you neede after the mess that took place right before. I agree with Tausha, bring the Jack back!! Must be a sign... Anyway, I had a question about the size of your jack's background piece. What are the dimensions of the rectangle you use? I think I'm going to make my own because I picked up my sewing machine again to make some pillows for my couch and I'm going to use the scrap pieces from the leftovers. Thanks so much and hope you had a nice 4th!
