I think they were GE 5000 somethings, can;t remember now. The staff at Home Depot were great about explaining things to me before we added them. I can sew at night, on black fabric, with no problem. Because each light can swivel, I have some aimed at the design wall and others over the machine and the cutting table. Glad I made the choice, and hopefully will never have to replace a bulb in my lifetime!

I especially love the tiny Tuesday ones!<br />I squealed when I saw your straw case, I’ve been thinking of making something very similar but for sock needles. It’s sooooo hard not to lose just one needle, and then where would one be? So, as soon as I can, I think that has to be my next project!<br />Hugs,<br />Barbara xxFlashinScissorshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06408946289711452871noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8372716062763623967.post-48460434701421037692019-06-29T15:12:26.066-04:002019-06-29T15:12:26.066-04:00Oh my, Sandra, did we both use the same blue marbl...Oh my, Sandra, did we both use the same blue marble fabric this week??!

I've never met a star I didn't like! Plus we were trying to use up red and blue scraps! I love your tiny blocks, and I recognize some of those fabrics - especially the lovely churn dash background. That swirl fabric for the basket is really cool and sure gives it a bit of movement. Hmm, a straw case. That's a cool idea! You may have created a whole new trend! ~smile~ RoseanneHome Sewn By Ushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13943739387560629258noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8372716062763623967.post-57835213831130042052019-06-29T09:57:07.426-04:002019-06-29T09:57:07.426-04:00I've been pondering a straw case as well!

But two on my sewing table today, so maybe I'll get one done this weekend in time to sneak it in to the linky (does that count?). I still like those three cute baby squirrels! piecefulwendyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02256164519304112032noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8372716062763623967.post-24491568582543611942019-06-29T09:32:16.916-04:002019-06-29T09:32:16.916-04:00I love the idea of a straw case!
