internal struggle

in every home there is always dishes to be done.

wether you are a person who doe's them after every meal,

or one that lets them accumulate until the point

that they have to be done.

guess which one i am ; )

DISHES : P ...

WELL, it was that time again... (they were coming dangerously close

to touching my fabric. lol)

SO to get motivated i cranked the music, got myself a large glass of root beer and got to it.

now that they are done, time to reward myself...

i think i'll finish cutting out my deer valley quilt!

that sounds like a good way to justify it, right???

HOW DO YOU MOTIVATE YOURSELF???

we LOVE you!!

(dinner is covered, now what to make for dessert... )

in transition...

With the new baby on the way, (6 weeks!) we are moving

my daughter back into her room.

which means i am moving my sewing room out of it...

needless to say, theres not much sewing going on around here.

i just haven't figured out where to move it yet ; )

wish me LUCK!

vintage SINGER.

we were doing some running around today...

you know your typical saturday morning stuff.

it's SO beautiful out today!

it's nice to feel the heat from the sun. (thank-you spring)

anyway... we're driving i see a sign for a garage sale

and ask to make a quick detour.

so glad we did!

there were 8-10 old singers there. i didn't think that

i would be one for old sewing machines. i don't

really know much about them, but they are so pretty.

and it's fun to think about all of the projects that have been sewn.

it's missing the power cord so if anyone knows where to

find one, that would be helpful. i would really like to see

if i could get it working.

for $20.00 i just couldn't pass it up!

hope your having a GREAT saturday!

can i be on your blog?

while taking pictures of a quilt that i have been

working on for the baby, my son asked,

"can i bend over the quilt so that i can be on your blog?" lol...

what a sweety... i think he was feeling a little left out after

i took all of those pictures of his sister in her new dress.

LOVE that BOY!!

it just has to be quilted and bound.

i hope to finish it this weekend!

wish me luck! i might have to call in some backup

to help me pin ; )
