The Bees Knees



I spotted this bee print while on a thrift trip to the Pacific Northwest.  I was at a wonderful estate sale, which quickly escalated to a FAN-FREAKING-TASTIC estate sale once I spotted this remnant.  It literally was the bees knees for me.

I love bees!  They remind me of my mother.  I have a bee tattoo.  My husband has a hilarious history with bees.  He thinks they purposely swarm him.  No, he really believes they keep a poster of him at "the hive" with the phrase "swarm, but don't sting".

I am pretty sure I pushed a couple of people out of the way once I saw this piece peeking out from a tower of fabric.  No one was hurt, except for me.  In my mad grab for the little remnant, I was stuck-by-a pin.  D'oh!  I hate when that happens.
