It’s all in the Photo by Beth Ann

With everything being so crazy here for months….I am just getting myself back. My Mom is in a very good living place and we are getting a new normal worked out.

I haven’t done anything I have wanted to do for months, tonight I did, pulled out my photo’s and just played on Photoshop. I have always had anxiety and it has been on over drive. So, it’s huge for me to just be and be happy doing what “I” like.

Nice to see you, is from a boat ride and we walked the beach in Sarasota Bay.

Scary Beauty The Jelly fish is from Mote Marine, and of course my flowers, from ??? I even took a bit of time and entered a digital photo contest, I didn’t include them here but will after judging.

MY CAMERA Nothing fancy, just point and shot.

Purchase through my link and I get a few cents, thank you !

Finished Building my Sewing Table

One last day of this table, but I love it. I have had a couple questions, the table is all two by fours and a 3/4 inch plywood top. Husband and I moved through the pile of both the two by fours (need to be straight) and plywood(perfect grain pattern)

They (workers) will look at you, watch and NEVER help. AND I am VERY fine with that. Better to leave me ALONE. We always put everything back on the racks. The cost for both the plaid walls and table just about 300.

This table is 77 inches long, 36 inches wide and 32 inches high ! It’s a beast. I LOVE IT and My Sewing room is DONE???

Building my NEW Office Table

First measure, re-measure and again measure your wall or your area, make a very detailed plan. This is the way I did mine, not a pro, not a carpenter, don’t over think it. I just used two by fours, screws, white paint and time.

Off to get lumber, Husband checked my numbers so there are not a return trip. I didn’t purchase the top at this time. I wanted the base together and MAKE sure I had the right size cut. I wanted this table heavy and not able to move around when my sewing machine was going. I did the legs this way.

How to a building two by four table

Cut all the pieces for the legs, painted

Put two end units together

With Husbands help added two by fours to the outside edges. After see the space under the table I added a shelf, which I love having.

Back to Lowes, for the table top. I like to do this talking with the gentlemen cutting the wood, which side will have the best edge after cutting? This guy was HARD to warm up, but I told him it was me building the table and I was asking out of no knowledge and it WORKED !

This is the top and Husband did the cuts for the new under shelf. I did 2 thin coats of stain and LOTS of satin top coats, sanding with a brown bag in between loads, this took days. DO NOT hurry drying.

MY NEW TABLE

The table and plaid wall supplies were just about 300 dollars, priceless !

It’s All About the Plaid, How I Painted my Plaid Walls

New Look to my sewing room.

How to paint a plaid design on a wall

Our plan had been to live in the condo for a bit and then purchase a house, you know a house like we sold..I don’t think that is happening anytime soon. AND… I hate my sewing room, yes I said it, “HATE” my sewing room. This is the THIRD do of it, there was no committee meeting about it…since Husband retired, he cares about me decorating???

I painted the two walls the standard white of our condo about two weeks before doing the strips. And BEFORE you all go off the deep end, I’m a REALLY good painter and I don’t cover things, I am slow and steady. Kind of, I paint at my own risk. BUT, you may need to cover….THIS piece of paper is the most important of ALL. Plan it out. I like to work a couple of hours a day. I NEVER paint when I am tired. Nothing goes right and I really like painting so for me it’s get up, breakfast and paint. In the pool by 1:00, always my end goal.

I used a level and one of my quilting rulers, ten inch one, very fine lines across the wall with a pencil and then added the blue tape just on the outside of the lines.

I added the Valspar Clear Glaze to the paint, it’s doesn’t change the paint color it just lets you work a bit longer with the paint, it doesn’t dry as fast. NOT a paid promo…

I finished painting the strips and removed the tape pretty quickly.

I let it dry a couple of days and then added the up and down strip. Same as before, measure, mark, tape and paint.

Did just a bit of touch up and I LOVE it.

I designed and built a HUGE table, with Husband’s help, will share soon.

It’s Been A Bit

It has been a VERY long bit. I am trying to be back, my Mom is in her ninth week of rehab. and I’m just about….done. I will share more when it’s possible and when I have the were about me to do it.

Husband said last Friday night, “Grab your camera and let’s go see the Clydesdales” We drove down, pulled in, parked in the first row, walked around the corner AND

The Month of August Quilt Patterns WAS to be MY Month????

I hope you enjoyed the Month of Augusts FREE quilt patterns. It was a huge project and I don’t think I will be doing that anytime soon again.

I always have a VERY well outlined plan and this past month blow that to crap. My mom fell and broke her right femur 13 cm, one plate and ten screws later. Five days in the hospital and now in full time rehab, no weight on her right leg for six weeks. She pretty much is done, she had very little strength before the fall and now….it’s up to her and her spirit how much she will regain. And probably me?

All the emotions can be seen on my face, I am exhausted, have done

nothing I want or like to do and when I do have time….I just can’t seem to do it??? In my wimpy voice, “I didn’t get the book done I wanted, I didn’t get any art started for the holiday’s and the most important I’m not swimming every day.” I, I, I……

So for the next little bit, I’m going to just be ! I need to get myself together ! Please take a moment and look around my quilt pattern shop. Now it the time to start a new quilt !

Stop at my Quilt Pattern Shop and purchase a quilt pattern !
