Just Another Day

It's been a long week, been everyday except yesterday spending the day at the hospital visiting mom.
It takes up a good portion of the day but I have been able to get a little each day working on scraps and yesterday I was home so I was able to finally finish cleaning up this mess. 


It took a while but this is how wonderful my room looks now.


Have now all the UFOs up on the shelf instead of in the ironing shelf.


Put in the shoe box size containers scrap bits, triangles, HST and some 1 1/2 strips. 

Then in this shelf I have all the cut squares and strips.

 I know that I have some sizes that most don't save but they do come in handy when wanting make HST.

I have been wanting to get this task done for a year now and it feel good to finally have it done.

 Now it's time to get busy using them up seeing how I have tubs of scraps I need to press and cut.

 Was able to do a little sewing after all this was done,
Finish the baby Blue RSC

    Your sewing rooming looks great! Everything sorted and labeled too! Do you like your IKEA cart? I’ve wanted one but not sure how it would fit into the scheme of things (if there even is a scheme). How do you use it?

How to Make a Portable Design Wall

I had wanted to get a portable design wall to take to retreats but did not want to pay the price. Looked at various pins on pinterest and took ideas from more than one to come up with my verison. It worked out great and only cost a fraction of the price. The PVC pipes, joints and 2 yards of felt cost under $22.00 My design wall is 4' x 4' which stands approximately 5 1/5' tall. For this size need 2 - 10ft length of 3/4" PVC pipe for the frame and 4ft of 1" PVC pipe for the feet Cut the 3/4" PVC into 4 - 4' section                                                                                       2 - 1' section              Cut the 1"  PVC into 4 - 1' section        ...

Yarn Along 2/20/13 Spoon Pin Doily

It's snowing here and I know some of you are tired of snow but here we will take the moisture any way we can get it. Plus it just gives me a reason to stay in and work on some of my projects. In this picture I'm not sure if you can make it out but in the background there are some wild turkeys that hang around the house sometime, just  chilling This project I'm working on is Spool Pin Doilies.   I had never heard of them before until Bonnie Hunter had mentioned it on her blog . She a had a viewer send her one for her sewing machine along with a pattern. I did not like the pattern but loved the idea so I decided to make up my own version. I wanted a more simple, smaller and fuller doily. So I tried different thread sizes to get one that I like. (From left to right) I tried sock yarn, which I'll redo because I think I like that look. Heavy weight crochet thread, nope too big Bamboo yarn, I like it. Looks good on my Kenmore. Pearl c...
