I’m feeling the itch, getting anxious to nail down a lay-out for
my 6-point hexies. With 25 hexies
complete and 12 more stars waiting, I need to decide where I’m going with
this. There are several ideas I’ve seen
on Pinterest, but just when I think I’ve decided - I see something else. One pattern sticks out a little more than
others so I ordered the back ground fabric today. No longer on the fence, my hexies now have
purpose. Can’t wait to share once I
receive the fabric – a gold Civil War repro! This is a true leap of faith, I’ve never used
gold anything before. Until then, I’ll keep cranking out the 6 pointers.
One
of my all-time favorite movies is the Wizard of Oz. During the winter, Cinemark Theaters run a
series of movie Classics which are shown on Sundays and Wednesdays. Last night a handful of my family members
went to check out the Wizard on the big screen.
If you’ve never had the chance, and it comes to town – It. Is. A. Must.
See! The detail you see on the big
screen is phenomenal. Now I’ve seen this
movie – dozens of times. But, I saw detail on
the munchkins, flowers and scenery I had never seen before. Completely amazing – and not just to me, but
a gathering of viewers stood outside the theater after just to talk about
it. I assumed there would be a flood of kids, but
not at all. Besides 2 of my grands, my daughter
looked to be the youngest adult in attendance.
I had chills!
Before and after the movie a commentary was shown about the costumes, make-up, etc.
Did you know the cowardly lion suit is a Real Lion pelt?
Poor Bert Lahr, having to wear a real animal pelt - can you imagine how hot it must have been? I don't even want to think about the smell... Yikes!
