it's curtains...

i haven't done a terrible lot of sewing in the past few days. had the weekend off, but i went out to shoot the pictures for the baby k quilt, then on sunday ed and i trekked out to ardmore to check out the last clover market of the season. bummer. it was way tiny, but i was informed that normally it is much bigger, so i missed it. double bummer. i think ed knew that too, he said he felt bad. however, after i got some chipotle, well, it was livable. we also got to visit an uncle who is rarely seen, which was v. nice. hopefully we will go out again soon, have dinner, bring a cheesecake, you know, the usual stuff...

follow all of that with work, work, sewing class, kate nash show (yeah!), work, evil, fat, cocky mouse living in my house leaving messes and eating alfie's food.... well it was a lot. this is what i got done...


granted, they are sewn now, into the basic rectangular shape that will be the curtains for the bedroom. i am debating on whether i should line them or not. they are basic 4 inch patchwork. i would like to have some light shining through them. i envision the usual, you know, stained glass style colors gliding through in the final burst of sunlight in an autumn evening... but then you would see my sewing on the back. not that anyone will see it... but i will. bah. what to do...

with all of this, i look back and think, wow you are lame. look at anna maria! i just read her latest blog post about quilt market. even i'm tired! so much work, and i am complaining about a mouse! but i suppose that is why she is heaven... sigh.
