Sew Sew Sew

Curtains, part the first, for our front window that has plagued my OMG WE ARE EXPOSED sensibilities for the four years we’ve been living here:

Pardon the light.

I went back to get another three yards of this fabric while it was still on sale and naturally they were out of it. ~headdesk~ So either our back window (that is 180 degrees/immediately across from this one in the same room)  will have to have different fabric, or I will have to see if a different branch of the same fabric store still has this particular colorway. (they still have it in blacks and greys, which is stunning in its own way but not so ideal for this room)

I also picked up some fabric to attempt a One Block Wonder quilt today, although naturally I fouled up and didn’t get enough yardage. Grr. To steal a phrase from some dear friends: Myriad Things That Thwart Me!

Max consents to be the gratuitous cat photo for the day:

max is quite the photogenic cat!

curtains.. hmm.. lucky. we mostly just have blinds (the nice kind, we insisted the leave them when we purchased the apartment) and I added some cheap ikea ones in the bedroom for more light blockage, but some colour at the window would be nice. :)

Oooooh, look at the look you’re getting!

That’s a warning look if I ever saw one.

I think he consented begrudgingly.

Max is cute as cake and your curtains turned out great. Good luck in the hunt for more fabric.

Hi Liz, sorry to have to paste this in your comments but I couldn’t find an email link … I’m over from the Neoclassical page and have been having the same issue as you did, i.e. not being able to get the ABOUT page to work. I see yours works now so am wondering if you’d share your secret with me … I’d be so grateful. Thank you in advance! (alda_kalda@yahoo.com)
