Since last week I have accomplished much in my sewing room. I took a much needed 5 days off. If I wanted to sit on the sofa, watch TV and drink Pepsi, and eat fattening foods it was okay because I didn’t have to rush to get things done before Sunday night.

New furniture in place. You can see some before during and after photos here along with links to what I used if you’re interested. If you’d rather, here are a couple finished shots.

There’s still a little fine tuning and organization that needs done but it’s functional and I have empty storage spaces.

I also found time for some relaxed sewing and played with Island Batik Stash Builders and AccuQuilt dies. I found a couple of these Stash Builders while moving things around.

The green pack is on its way to Norway. It is roughly 8,900 miles from Indonesia where the fabric is made to IB in California. Another 1,900 miles to me in Illinois. Another 4,000 miles from me to Norway. That is more miles than I put on my car in 2 years. This fabric is well traveled to say the least and I hope it brings its new owner much happiness.

Happenings

I worked on my project for this years Virtual Cookie Exchange hosted by Carol at Just Let Me Quilt. This fabric is Island Batik from a couple of years ago and on the AccuQuilt Crazy Quilt die.

Nature is a beautiful thing and if we look, you can find inspiration all around us.

I love Andrée’s mallard duck. You can read more about Andrée and her block at Quilting & Learning-What a Combo.

DONNALEEQ shared her scrappy improv Cardinals. She has another beautiful wip that she is working on in the same post.
