Friday at 3:10, only 40 more minutes till the weekend, Halleluiah
I’m so looking forward to the weekend.
This weekend I am working on setting up one of the spare rooms, ok let
us call it Willy’s old room. My son
decided a few months ago to move to the basement,
I left his room alone for a while to make sure he didn’t want to come back, but
it seems that he likes the basement, so that means I have another spare
room. The other spare room is known as
the baby room, as it has a crib in it, and a lot of baby dolls. So Willy’s old room has been painted my
favorite color, maple leaf. I bought a
carpet for the floor as the floor was a mess.
I moved one of the benches I have to in between the cupboards, where my
bigger dolls will sit. I found some old
curtains we had packed away in a case.
The house I now own was built by my father over 60 years ago and when
growing up in it there was my grandmother, grandfather, mom dad and 3
brothers. My grandparents and father
never threw anything away, I think that is whee my love of quilting began, my grandmother would never throw old clothes
away, she would recycle them into quilts or aprons. The curtains I found were handmade by my
grandmother, and along with them I found a camera from the 1940’s. I’ll be moving a couch that my dad made years
ago into the room, I want most of what is in this room to be hand made. I want to make a list of things that I want
to finish up, it seems I start a lot of things but am slow at finishing
them. I want to make some pillows out of
some stuffed bears I have, the bears take up too much room and I need the
pillows for the couch. I'm going to hang a quilt on one wall, and of course will have one on the couch. I also want to get a trunk for a coffee table.
