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 : )

Good luck with the painting and moving all your fabric!

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.
