We were having friends over today for an afternoon bbq, and I while I was sitting reading some blogs this morning, I looked over at my coffee, and saw this:
I kinda thought to myself, man, it's a little messy in here. Then I looked around some more ...
I seriously don't know what happened!! This is my dining room people!! It was time for a little (or should I say big) clean up!! So .. here's proof that I spent some time this morning cleaning before our friends came by ...
This is where I put most of it:
Yikes - does your craft room or "dining room" ever get this bad??
Before I realized what a mess the dining room was, I made myself a shirt. It was a really easy pattern called the "megan peasant dress" by Jennifer Paganelli. The pattern gives options for lots of different lengths, and also for different sleeves. I was able to cut the pieces and sew the whole thing together in one night. I still have to cut some threads, but here she is:
Okay ... so now that I have shared, I need to be clear. The rest of my house doesn't look like this!! : )
Mine gets almost that bad. lol I love that top!
ReplyDeletefunny post!! yes, unfortunately my sewing area does look like that--way too often...in fact, more often than not. i get it organized and zip...it's a super mess again. nice you could get it fixed up for your bbq!!
ReplyDeletei think it's a sign of a used sewing-room it's a good thing val!!!!! if my sewing-room is tidy it means it's time to get back to work!!!! x
ReplyDeleteIf you could see my kitchen table right now, you'd know just how NOT embarrassed you should be!
ReplyDeleteMy sewing room is such a mess I can't sew! I need to get off the computer and pick it up right now.
ReplyDeleteCute top! I have 2.5 yards of little folks voile for a top and I can't decide on a pattern. Your is adorable!!
Hmm. Looks vaguely familiar. The only reason I *know* this wasn't, in fact, my sewing room is that mine still looks like your first photos and wasn't tided by some magical cleaning fairy.
