I just wanted to show you a quick shot of my design wall. I haven't worked on it in a while but this is the last thing that I had been working on before my quilting break.
Tumblers....
Right now they are just sewn together in sets of 4 and placed on the wall. I'm sure I will move them around and I also have the other half of the quilt to piece. :) If I remember correctly, I don't even have them all cut out yet.
Shamefully, this is the state of my sewing room. :( A big horrible mess! I really need to find a cool day and get up there and get it back in order. It is so hot up there that I can't really stand to work up there too long. I have several sewing machines downstairs so I can piece on one of those. If you remember I had to do this same thing last summer.
We had our yard sale yesterday and it was a success! It was a long day but worth it. Not only did I get rid of a bunch of stuff, I also made a little extra cash. Oh and I got a sunburn! My sister and I set up in town and ready to sell at 8am. A friend from Church came a little later and set up with us. We stayed until about 3pm and started packing it up. I'm just glad that it went well.
Did I mention that I have been busy working on my sister's wedding stuff? I am doing ALL of her flowers and decorations. I will post some photos of what I have done in a day or two. So far the only thing that I have done are all of the wedding serving utensils for the reception. They are all decorated with rhinestone stuff. Her bouquet is FINISHED! Sheeewww...that baby had me nervous. I kept praying that she would like it and she loved it. :) She kept describing it to me and a while back mom, Chantal and I went and picked out what we would need for it. I also have 100 birdseed bags finished and decorated. Working on several other things. I've really got to get my butt in gear and get her stuff finished, there are only a million things left on the list. LOL!

Could you put a window a/c unit in your sewing room? The window looks like it might be too wide though. I like your tumblers, good luck on getting all of your sister's wedding stuff done!
Nice looking tumbler quilt, Kristie.
We just got AC a few years ago, and until then I could not be in the loft of our home for more than a few minutes on a warm summer day.
Your sister is lucky to have you helping her. Sounds like you are a one woman bridal service!
Your tumbler quilt is great. I want to do one of those soon.
What a nice sister you are! I am sure the wedding is going to be beautiful.
