Suddenly Summer

Summer has arrived and these summery sea fabrics

have landed on my cutting table.

The long weekend became a blogging break.

It also turned into a break from sewing.

I did not get my patriotic project done ... hmmm, maybe by July? 

Memorial Day Weekend was very nice,  mostly sunny, breezy, cool at night.

Mr Scrapatch and I scratched in the dirt a lot and planted and weeded and mulched.

We were in sweatshirts for our backyard barbecue late in the afternoon

Yesterday the temperatures soared over 20 degrees

and the sudden need for cooler air inside called for quick placement

of our window air conditioners.

There is one more that needs be put in the kitchen window

which will be the Hubs after work job.

Plans are also to go to get milk at the dairy so there will also be ice cream cones.

Anyway, today I am looking to be in an cool place, like

"Octopus's Garden in the Shade" by the Beatles

I shall have to settle for these pretty fabrics ... 

Octopus Garden Fabrics form Robert Kaufman

There is a free pattern for this fabric line here ...

Ocean Life ~ Free Pattern from Robert Kaufman

I do have a panel.

I also have a few fat quarters  from this bundle ...

@ Fort Worth Fabric Studio

Today, though, I only have the various size cuts of yardage on my table.

Now what shall I be making with this?

After much dithering today, I have a plan! 

Hope to have more to show you soon.
