Hi Everyone and yes I'm still here

Hello everyone...Yes, I am still here, Still Cleaning out my Sewing Room. Oh my gosh what a Job!!! I started trying to sort through books, magazines, now I am to the point of "pitching old books out of the room", literally, Pitching - I mean Whole Books I am throwing out of my Sewing Room. My Son, who was home at one point, thought I was having a nervous breakdown....I just might! I am starting on the West Wall of my room and working myself around....so far, 2 days down and total of 6 hours I have spent....about 1/4 of the room you can actually see some improvement???!!! Will take pictures when I am done and I am donating all of my "old books" to our local library....Also will have some giveaways for some kits that I think I bought in the 90's....! Seriously!!! But these kits I can't throw away...some have fabrics too included! So will update as soon as I get this mess cleaned up (probably another week),
Love and Hugs
oh and Happy Belated Valentine's Day,

I think I might have a (little) Problem....







Look at my sewing room, YIKES!!!!   I think I need professional help on how to organize this mess!!!  My poor sewing machine looks soooo lonely among all the chaos!!  Now that I am looking at these pictures, I look like I am hoarding fabric!!!!!  WOW!!!  Bins are overflowing with fabric!!!  I think this room need an overhaul - what do you think????

(i am sooo embarrassed)

Hugs,

Mary

Look what I found on Etsy!!





I purchased these through http://www.lisabetzoriginals.com/ by Liza Betz.  She makes Mosaic Art and Original Jewelry on Etsy.  Aren't they adorable??? 

They just arrived today...don't quite know where I am going to place them, I think in my kitchen, but maybe my bedroom, will see...
Hope everyone is having a Great Monday,

Hugs, Mary

AFTER A FUN DAY IN THE SNOW...

MY MOST RELAXING POSITION  :)  LIFE IS GOOD!!

SNOWBOUND AND COOPER








I think pictures can say a million words.....

Swaps....

?!?!?!?!?!?!?!? Think I am going to take a Break from Swaps...to all the ladies that made their Quilts and made the Deadlines, THANK YOU SO  MUCH :)   But, unfortunately life happens and a monkey wrench is thrown in and soon things that are out of your control , go haywire and then before you know it, a Perfect Swap becomes, well not so perfect...so Again, to all the Ladies of my past Swap, Thank you each and everyone of you that made your Quilt, Mailed it to your Swap partner and followed the deadlines.   You are the ones that make Swapping so Special and Fun! 

Feeling a little frustrated here!!???!!  Maybe I should make something Blue as that is how I feel...

Hopefully tomorrow will be a better day,

Hopeful

Mary
