Here's Block #7 for my Farm Girl Sampler quilt. It will measure 12 inches finished like the cow block. In fact, all the rest of the blocks will be 12 inches, so much easier to sew than the little 6-inch blocks.
I love my bee background fabric in this block. I have had this in my stash for several years. And I have lots of it still.
We had a busy morning here at The Yellow House today. For the past couple of days, Sophie has been scratching and acting uncomfortable. I've been giving her Benadryl, which seemed to help. But last night, it got so bad that she scratched and cried all night. When I finally got her to flip over, I saw that she had an angry-looking rash on her belly. We were at the vet's office this morning as soon as the door opened. The doctor checked her out and said she has a skin infection probably brought on by an allergy to something she got into outside. She prescribed an antibiotic and Temaril. After one dose, sweet Sophie already seems to feel better. She's resting and not clawing her skin and crying now.
None of us got very much sleep last night because of Sophie's condition. And I'm exhausted. But I have supper in the crock pot, and Anna's here cleaning house, so I shouldn't have much more to do today except load the dishwasher after supper then collapse on the couch for some reading.
I'm just glad my Sophie is feeling better. At one point last night, she was crying so much that I started crying with her. And Taco was loving on her with a worried look on his face. Skipper and Bella didn't seem very worried. Bella left the room for a quieter section of the house, and Skipper snuggled down deep in the covers where he couldn't see and hear what was going on.

Oh, poor sweet Sophie! You're a good puppy mama to get her to the vet promptly once you saw what was bothering her. I'm glad for everyone in the Yellow House that the medicine is helping Sophie feel better already.
Our CrockPot has a roast cooking in it for dinner tonight. What's in your CrockPot?
Love your Queen Bee block and have to ask if you plan to add a crown on her head just for clarity. Don't you love having a stash that included that stellar bee background fabric? Give yourself a pat on the back for finding it when you needed it!
Hugs!

Love the bee block. I have the pattern for the bee block mini quilt I plan to start on sometime soon (I hope).
