How Barnabas Came To Be

The day I received the phone call to be apart of the Spellbound Mystery Sew~A~Long, I severely fractured the humerus bone in my right arm.  How in the heck was I going to be able to design a block now?  After my surgery, the doctor said I wouldn't be able to draw with my right hand for many weeks. Not only was my arm broken, but my heart as well. 

With encouragement from the other 11 designers in the group, I didn't give up. Maybe I couldn't draw right now, but my imagination still worked. As I lay around the house recuperating, I went over several design ideas in my head.  Nothing seemed quite right.  I just wasn't feeling inspired.

That all changed one morning when I heard my husband come down the stairs and say, "there is a bat in our bedroom!"

The first words out of my mouth were"SCARY!"

Apparently, I had left one of our doors open and the bat decided to come in that night and  make himself at home. Thankfully, my husband was able to escort the bat back outside.  There's never  been a bat in my house before and hopefully there never will be again. But I am grateful for the incident, as it sparked the idea to bring Barnabas to life.

I hope you have enjoyed the Spellbound Mystery Sew~A~Long.  It sure has been a delight for me to be apart of this amazing and talented group.  I can't wait to see all your finished block togethers.

Happy Halloween!
