Back upstairs

This ladt week has been lots of carrying upstairs and unpacking, washing and dusting,  things are slowly getting back towards normal. 
New rugs down and furniture back, most of the cabinets contents are unpacked, 
still a few more things to find for the wall units
kitchen is still waiting for a splashback and a few other things but is nearly fully usable,  doors coming for the cabinet above the fridge.
but my sewing room is not finished 😪 rhe furniture removal men were different to the ones who outlet the desk apart and the guys who came Wednesday had NO idea what to do with it. So we are waiting for the kitchen reno guys to come and see if they can do anything with it . Fingers crossed!! It is quite heavy so I can't lift up myself.
Not a lot of sewing has been happening for obvious reasons, but the textile piece is done,  just the label to sew on.
I am supposed to sew D rings on the back fir it to be hung but the local hardware didn't have any, I am hoping plain rings will be ok. Tomorrow I am off to Gisborne for a few days retreat , am looking forward to that.
Happy stitching.

  1. Your textile piece is lovely. Surely different rings will be ok to hang it. Love your new kitchen and your floor rug. Is that a new sofa etc? Pity about the desk in your sewing room. Nothing goes perfectly does it? I hope you have a wonderful time on the retreat.

  2. Sue, everything is looking fabulous! Love the seating area with the wonderful rug. How lovely to have two sitting areas with comfy chairs to sit and relax. The kitchen is looking great, too....nearly there. =) And....very soon you will be in your sewing space whipping up all those fabulous quilts that you always do. Love the stitching on your textile piece. Enjoy your retreat; sounds fun.
