Urban studio

Early this sping I decided I needed an indoor studio. The three season porch gets really nippy, even with the electric fireplace. I decided to get a corner desk at Ikea and wedge it into the dining room. We have 8 people in 1800 square feet. Obviously, the dining room is small. I made incredible use of a corner of the room. I love it. I call it my urban studio because it is so much stuff crammed in one place. It reminds me of city living.

Tara, No peeking

Sophie's Quilt

Sophie's quilt

Slideshow from Atkinson Designs. Really well written pattern. I picked the lap quilt size thinking it would be a good size for Sophie Kate. I should have looked at the dimensions. It almost entirely covers my king size bed. I'm finishing up the machine quilting. I just have all the tiny little squares to quilt around. Then I'll decide if I'm going to put something in the middle of the big squares.

Sophie loved it when I started it, now she doesn't like it. It's fine, cause I love it.

Poor neglected blog...

Summer is coming so posts should increase. I've been quilting up a storm and Matthew is knitting up a storm to get ready to go to market in June.

This is a sideways picture of Tara's baby quilt. Her aunt is going to machine quilt it. When I put the right side up one above, it somehow got cropped. I have a degree in Psych and nursing, not computery stuff. Apparently, I need to do this backward because each picture I post shows up above the last one. I'm not sweating it and hitting the "publish post" button with my fingers crossed. I've tried to post and blogger kept eating the posts over the last few months.
