Sewing Room Floor

My sewing room is complete.  The only problem is it will be just a while longer before I move in.  This room was torn down and completely rebuilt. 

THEN I decided I could not live with the floor, so they poured concrete to level it and now I have Pergo flooring. 

The room has been painted 3 times.  First it was pink, then it was taupe and now it is a nice shade of aqua.   I am going to put up red tiers with aqua rick rack on them and soon I will have a new room to sew in.

So Many Things

I was gone to Long Beach area to visit with friends and go to the quilt show and when I came back the computer had serious issues, so now I am farther behind than usual in posting. Just a quickie. Here's Kathy and Stephanie from California, Kim for Oregon and myself at the quilt show. I grabbed a young man passing through the isle to snap our photo. We all met through an online block swap about 15 to 16 years ago. I have met others in the group and we still occasionally email back and forth. More photos later.

Another Great Project

I was taking a minute to surf blogland and came on a post from Angela about trying to start a Project Linus group in her area. I know she is serious about this because she talked about it at the Indiana Retreat. I was so excited because I just worked two days in training for a new job I decided not to take and I figure I earned enough extra money to help her out. So if you are so inclined, hop on over to her blog and help her out, too. Also, keep in mind she will need quilts, once she gets going.

It's been a while since I posted

Time has gotten away from me and I have missed an entire month. This is just a quick post to let everyone know I am still here. Here is a picture of a quilt I sent to Samantha for her birthday. It is another of the quilts for Margaret's Hope Chest.

Linen Dots

Just a few of the dots on linens. A couple of fruit hints in the pic on the right. There is a bookend on the top right and fruit on a canister to the left. More dots and fruit to follow.

Do I have Dots?

Decided to take a few shots at some of the dots in my dining room. Here you go Peggy. I have been at this dot thing for a while, so don't feel badly that you only have one itty bitty plate and one glass. I am sure your collection will grow. Will post a few more later and the question I leave you with is do you have fruit?

Inspiration

Inspiration comes from strange places. Last week I was at my Indiana Retreat and Peggy and I found our common love of dots. I have a lot of red in my house, but not a lot of dots. I have been thinking about this and decided to redecorate. Here is my start. Just a few more dots and it will be lovely.
