Sewing fanatic
So I'm slowly becoming a sewing fanatic. I've finished my den curtains, the tie backs for all the rooms, finished the curtain for the kitchen door, and sewn and re-sewn the girls' bathroom curtains. I got new fabric for the bath, but didn't end up liking it when I was finished. So I took my original panels and started to think about how I could fix them. A little thinking, a pair of scissors, and some precise measurements...new curtains! Much better than the other fabric. So glad I tried it. I do want to add something to my bedroom curtains, but I'm having to think on it. I've tried several things and haven't like much...so I think some more thinking is necessary. Next I want to work on the pillows for our bed. I didn't do them, as I have no trim. Surprisingly, this bothers me...I guess I'm getting more adventurous with my sewing. I'd love to drop everything and start on the girls' dresses too. But I have a lot of cleaning ahead of me...being sick means other things didn't get done. But come next week, if I'm caught up on work that is, nothing is stopping me from getting a few dresses out for my sweeties...that is if one of those sweeties remains where she is... ;)

I am interested in seeing some pictures when you get this all done! Maybe I should get a sewing machine, then we could have some curtains! We have lived in the house for 6 years and still no curtains in most rooms. The kids bedding sets came with them, so they have them and so does the living room. But, there are none in the computer rooms, bedroom, or out bathroom. LOL We do have blinds though! :o)
Pictures I can do. I'll try tomorrow, while I'm cleaning (as long as I don't forget). They are all very simple, as per my sewing ability. ;) Also as long as you have blinds, it doesn't matter. Besides it's what you like. You can tell by my post, I'm super picky...maybe I should have stuck with no curtains. Less frustrating. ha ha. I'll definitely post pics of their dresses if I get to them...and their not total failures. ;)
