This week seemed to get off to a great start. George went back to school after 2 weeks of Easter break and I had the kitchenette and the morning to myself. I turned on the radio and went about rearranging furniture to make a good sewing set-up..
I moved the table over so I could plug in the sewing machine (finally!),
(a view from the opposite angle)
And I set up a cutting area and the ironing board. It was working out really well. I even sewed a belated bee block for Mary~
I played on line, caught up on blogs, and even got inspired to sew something totally not on my sewing to-do list (more on that later), but then.. it all came to a screeching halt.
George got sick again (2nd time in 3 weeks) and has been home from school for the past 2 days. I moved all the furniture back and put the sewing machine away. Yesterday we played playdoh on the table and the little sofa is again covered in laundry to be folded/ironed. I am back to hand stitching in front of the tv while I try to feed him and keep him from getting cabin fever.
My big quilting projects are crawling along at a snails pace. Maybe I'll have better luck next week?

ReplyDeleteLovely bee block, very Greek colours!
Our to-do lists are eternal!
Sorry that George isn't feeling well. :( I hope is is up and running around soon. Love your clock.
ReplyDeleteDo I spy a bear paw block? very cute! sorry to hear George is sick - it's really interesting how localized immune systems really are [well, from a purely academic perspective]
ReplyDeleteI love your little sewing kitchenette. Just goes to show, we can sew anywhere. I hope your son feels better very soon. Sitting with him and your hand sewing sounds so sweet.
ReplyDeleteThat is a great set up! Sorry George isn't well, hope he feels better quickly so he can get back to school and you to sewing :)
