Wednesday musings

3.06.2013

Last weekend the boys spent lots of time playing inside {sooo cold}...{this is their car dealership}


and I spent lots of time sewing.  I made 6 drapery panels, all *lined* thank you very much {for once I did not cut corners}. My girlfriends recently made gorgeous drapes and showed me how to do it.  Just takes time and a LOT of patience! I'm super happy with them, they dress up my kitchen and add a fun pop of color. Eventually I'll get a kitchen post up! Hard to tell but they are a navy/white ikat. This fabric makes me happy!



Finished watching Downton and my heart is broken.. I must know what happens next to the Crawley's...


In other news we have the busiest week ever. Someone is turning 4 this weekend.....


when it seems like only yesterday we were here...


Also coming up this weekend is mama's second half marathon...my motto;

  1. Your panels look great!! I am working on two lined panels right now too. You are so right, patience is the name of the game! I can't believe Little C is already turning 4!! Time flies right? Hugs of good luck from Texas for your 1/2 this weekend! You are going to rock it!! I am right there with you on blogs and time...it just isn't existing for me right now! I'm doing good to throw a few paragraphs and pictures up a few times a week. As for reading them, there just isn't enough time in the day right now! I've missed you friend! Have a wonderful Wednesday!

  3. I love the curtains!!!! I wish I could sew, I have tried and it was utter failure!!!! Good Luck on your Half? Where is it at? I wish this crazy weather would hurry and scoot out of here so we can hit the pavement and run. So sick of the treadmill!

  13. The curtains are awesome! I have been itching to get my sewing machine out lately, but we are moving in a few weeks (and won't have a house until August) so I don't have anything to make. I am dying to start on the big boys' room C and B will share!
