Well ladies, here is the new room, or rather the old room remodeled. The new floor was done, the room was painted, and new baseboards were installed. It looks a lot better than the last time I showed you a picture of it. I am moving things in as I feel I need them. I will have space for the big board ironing board that DH made for me. Hooray! I have been using a little ironing board in my other room. It was all I had room for in there.
There is nothing on the walls yet. I have not moved in my wallhangings nor my pictures, nor my design wall. For a design wall, I would like to get something that I can cover with flannel or batting and have it be portable. There is a wall space behind the door that would be a great space, but it is BEHIND the door. If I use that spot, I will need to keep the door closed when I use the design wall. Maybe that is not a bad thing?
There are three open shelving units that DH and I assembled and brought into the room. They were filled up in two days. We then brought in a bookcase and it was filled almost immediately. My goal was to get all my fabric into this room. BIG HA HA HA! No way that can happen if I want to be able to move around in here.
Sunday I pulled up my sewing machine and finally was able to do some sewing. I found some scraps in a little basket and sewed them together and made three crumb blocks. It felt so good to hear my machine sewing again.
My thoughts and prayers go to all the folks back east who are being affected by the storm Sandy.
Take care.
Happy Quilting
