A Sewing Room of One's Own....

...is now what I have! It will do double duty as a guest room and that is fine by me, since I plan to decorate it so cutely that it will be a lovely room in which to be a guest as well as to sew in.

It is exciting enough that we have just bought our very first house, but getting that sewing room just puts it over the top. I would like to thank my lovely daughters for growing up so beautifully, getting married and moving out, which makes that 3rd bedroom so available! I'm enjoying making the house ready to move into and I know I'm going to savor getting my room set up just right.

Regular posts will resume eventually!

Easter Ensemble

I sewed! I actually sewed! I got this pretty accordian pleated "broomstick" fabric at my first (and only, so far) BABES gathering (BABES is a group of sistah sewists from the bay area who have Pattern Review in common: I've wanted to make it into a skirt for Easter for 2 years and I finally did! Here it is: I've lost 58 pounds over the past 10 months and this is the first thing I've sewed since I started my diet (Atkins). To go with the skirt I bought a knit top (in the misses department, not the Women's department!) and to complete the outfit my sweet girls gave me a gift certificate for a pedicure so I have matching toenails!

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 😜).
