almost done.....

almost done painting my sewing room.....just this strip down one wall and the cabinet below......


today was a rainy day, so instead of painting I sewed the bindings on these two Christmas quilts to be new pattern designs soon.....



and for those of you who have been looking for this quilt pattern Country Seasons, a leaflet published by another company but no longer in print, I dug through all my old pattern papers and found it, so I will put this pattern on the website soon also......



enjoy......

no sensitivity.....

my hubby bought this "sensitive" plant a couple weeks ago.....never heard of such a plant but apparently you touch it's leaves gently and they curl/close up.....
well he left his plant in my care while out of town on business, only touched it once to show Lucy, watered it and now......
obviously this plant is a little too sensitive or I lack any.....
told him I was not" good" with house plants.....sorry dear :(
ps.....this is my tea dying sink, hence the brown stains or I'm a lousy housekeeper also!

a big job ahead......

my sewing room is a dark burnt orange, a color I love but it's time for a change....... going light and bright!



my room is in an unattached old garage, so there's room for lots & lots of fun quilting stuff and lots of room for junk to collect and it has......will be moving, decluttering, painting and rearranging it bit by bit around the room......



really have lots of piles everywhere and some have a purpose such as this one, which is new quilt designs......



have stored so many magazines for so many years......am going through them to see what has to be a must save......like this from a Country Living 2008



well if you need me you'll know where I will be for awhile.......
