SOME TIME OFF?

I have the next few days off, and I've made myself a list a mile long of things I would like to do. Last night hubby and I were shoveling out one of the boys' rooms (he moved to Calgary) so I could paint it. I want to make it into a nursery. He said he thinks it should be my sewing room because it's bigger than the other spare room. So today, I am painting the nursery sewing room.  Now I have to paint the other room too.

The filled holes are where he laid in his bed and shot the walls with plastic bb's. (he told me they were plastic. )   Boys!

2. Move the sewing room (again) upstairs
3. Get Janie's quilt quilted. The baby shower is looming
4. I bought plants that need to go in.
5. Have a family dinner. My boys are back from up north and will want to be fed.This involves pies.
6. There are still a few days left in May, so I am going to try and get a jellyroll quilt made to participate in Megan's monthly jellyroll party. I won some lovely scraps a couple months back.



I did get my Granny Square quilt all quilted and bound. Yay! Hello Luscious is still one of my favourite lines yet.



Well, wish me luck. I'm going to need it : )

    You've done most of it already. Painting doesn't take that long when the room is empty. Moving the fabrics is great - you get to organize everything anew and I'm sure you will have some pleasant discoveries. Time for new ideas!

    Wishing you lots of luck - that is a long list! But I hope it all comes together very quickly!

    I adore the grannies! Was seduced by them myself...

    love the look of that jelly jive quilt - great use of jelly rolls! the good thing about moving your sewing stuff is that you find things you forgot you had - it's like you got it new all over again!

    My sewing/guest room is my son's old bedroom. The door has holes from his dart practice. Good luck with the transition.
