I was working on this over the weekend.
But I didn't calculate the border correctly, so I am one side shy!But before continuing on to any other projects I thought I should attend to
my messy quilting room. There were scenes like this all around me.
Jen (Miss Punkie Pie) and I had corresponded about doing a room makeover...
but it looked like I at least needed to find the floor.
So, I started to work on the piles of debris all around me... which led to more piles.But, I think it is starting to take shape and become a workable space again.
I also tried to do some window treatments where there had been none.
I am still working on it but thought I would give you the idea. I still need to add to the sides of this window to make it match the other one.
I dressed up my girl in the corner with fat quarters of Fig Tree fabrics.
I remember seeing that done in a picture of a booth... I think it had been from market.
I also tried to make a little skirt for the table from the yards upon yards of tulle I have.
My original idea was to cover the table top in oilcloth and then add a skirt.
I might still have to do that. I don't think the fabric used on the top will be very functional.
I had to stop there for now. I want to make a cover for my chair also. Maybe with some Quilt Soup fabrics. I will have to ponder it until I can work on it some more.
13 friends stopped by to chat:
I love the fat quarters on the mannequin! SO SO cute and fun! I see those red and white snowball blocks in the background...they look lovely, too :)
OHGosh! I love the mannequin! Of course it helps to dress her with Fig Tree...luv it! Is everyones room a mess? I have seen so many blogs with this same issue...and I am feeling that way too..Maybe we are into early spring cleaning huh?

Oh cute mannequin skirt! Love your curtains too. Your room looks very inviting. :-) Hope you managed to get more fabric for your quilt~ it is wonderful! Happy Stitching!
Okay, the mannequin?? LOVE IT!!! I love your room! Love the curtain you put up too! Your quilt is very nice too (even with the missing border!).
I love that room of creativity!!! The polka dot curtains remind me that I still need to put up some in my sewing room - and, they simply must be polka dots! Yours convinced me!!!
