Superbowl stitching...

I know there is a football game going on tonight but the really big news at my house...

the homeowners association approved my request to put and extension on my sewing studio!!!  (and before anyone asks...yes I did make the committee cookies at Christmas though really I didn't know at that point we would be making this request!)

The room is currently 11 by 14 foot.  The addition will make it 24 feet by 11 with another 10 by 5 foot storage area making it L shaped.

So in addition to getting ready for the big game I have been slowly moving a few armloads at a time into the guest bedroom.  Naturally Dobby thought this was his opportunity to take over the guestroom bed....

I've unearthed some more UFO's...like the blocks above!

Poor Watson is worn out from following me from room to room (and periodically checking on the treats baking in the oven!)  He has a tough life!

As far as the game goes..."Go Patriots!"  And maybe I'll just get some quilting  done on my Charleston Baskets...my quilting is the red thread...the light brown stitches are the basting.

It's Here!!!

Just a quick post...lots of work to do!

My new (to-me) sewing table is here!  A friend drove his pickup truck and helped with the loading and unloading.  Phew!  It was wrapped up tightly in blankets so made the hour trip ok...had to lock the pets up for a bit while we wheeled it in...they seem to like it!  (gives Dobby a great view of his backyard...)

Still loads of organizing.  Before we left I was pretty proud of myself.  The shelves were all filled with fabric and the floor was cleared. It all fit!  Then I walked down the hallway and noticed the bed in our guest bedroom is covered in a mound about 2 foot tall of fabric!  Oh no!

Need a new plan....
