Cross That Off The List

Lots of to-dos were crossed off the list today. Dh and dd worked hard on moving her furniture to the apartment, and she helped to ready the house for visitors. The baby's dress is finished. The bridesmaid's wraps were finished. Making the wraps (mere rectangles of white chiffon edged with a picot stitch on the serger) was the only sewing-related wedding project that actually went as easy and fast as I thought it would). The slideshow is finished and several copies have been burned to CD. All in all, I'm about where I hoped to be now. Mom, sis and the baby arrive tomorrow night! Whee!

Cozy Purple Pop of Color

Cozy purple throws for snuggling!  Adds some color  to the living room.  Thick fleece trimmed straight with rounded corners.  I tried some overcast stitches with my Juki however I couldn't get the look I wanted so I pulled out my serger. Gosh it's been, like 2 years since I used it but luckily it worked (I've had it for quite awhile but I'm still kinda afraid of it 😜).

Crafty Stirrings

My sewing stuff has been packed up for quite awhile and I miss it! It was packed up to make room for a season of extended visits by family which we have truly enjoyed so it was a worthy trade-off. Family visits will be done in a few weeks and in the meantime we decided that we'll be moving into a different house a few weeks later, so my sewing and craft things (other than sewing-related stuff I have just a few jewelry-making and scrap-booking supplies) will remain packed until it's arranged in our new abode. Focusing on family and transition decisions has taken up my mental space so it's just now, as I begin creating the vision of our next home I'm looking forward to having a sewing space again.
