Getting There

Progress has been made in the bedroom...











And on the quilting front...






Finishing touches await...












Distractions of a very minor nature!





Time to recharge on a rare and indulgent child-free weekend away. One of the benefits of turning yet another year older? See you next week, in a little more detail, let's hope...

Have a lovely weekend- you are making me feel deep bedroom guilt...the new curtain fabric for ours awaits my attention as it has done for quite some time now and I really do need to finish the walls...I know it will be great when it is done, 'when' is the problem!

What a beautiful, relaxing sanctuary you are creating! I have many of the same pieces as you but mine are scattered throughout the house and garage - i think you have inspired me to have a go at my bedroom!!
