Sewing Time

I actually spent some time today in my sewing room--it was grand. I even rearranged it some--I needed to vacuum and straighten--ahhh--feels better. I got three projects completed.

1. My first block in my block of the month quilt I'm doing at a local quilt shop. Came together in less than an hour. I like those kind. I didn't even have to use my good friend, the seam ripper :)!

2. I made one of these for my friend, Kimberly, and this one is for me. Now, where to hang it?
3. This is a sneek peek at a trade for another good blog friend. I just need to do the binding!! It feels so good to accomplish something. "My soul is feed by my needle and thread". Have a wonderful Wednesday.
Be Nice to People,
Julie

Hi Julie! Thanks for stopping by! Well I'll repeat myself here for a good reason - you do such nice work. I always enjoy seeing what you create.

I just used Benjamin Moore paint. First I used wood filler in the holes and dents and then just painted 2 coats. I haven't done doors in black though I have seen in done before on 6 panel doors and they were striking!!

Have a great day my friend!
