A Good Start...






I have not had a sewing room for years. Finally, I have a good start in my new apartment. No decor yet. Also my computer is still out in the living room. It will be moved into the sewing room soon and I plan to hang a small TV on the wall so I can play sewing DVD's etc. My coverhem is stashed in the sewing cabinet and my embroidery machine is in the closet. This room is small but even after the computer is in here, I think I will be able to extend the table for cutting. I don't think I will be able to have the table extended and the ironing board up at the same time. Still, so much better than my old apartment. Yay!

A Little Change in Plans





I haven't been tracing many patterns lately. I moved! It seemed like the right time. Anyway, it certainly interrupted my sewing plans. But, even though I am not completely settled in, I did manage to prepare the bassinet for the new grandson coming in July. I am very excited and happy about it.

The bassinet just needed a new liner and new ribbons. When DGD was born 4 years ago, I completely refurbished it. I slept in this.

These roses are from my back yard. Aren't they beautiful?
