A Whole lot of Rearranging going on...

My sister Debbie moved out yesterday. She has been living with us since we moved to Utah in August. It was so fun to get to live together! The last time we lived together she was 12! The girls are really sad that Aunt Debbie is leaving us but really excited because that means they get to have their own rooms again. In concept I like the idea of them learning to share and be kind and grow their sisterly bond or whatever. In reality they made each other nuts and in the process drove me nuts as well. Skyler likes to get up early and Alina found that super annoying (and I don't blame her one bit!).  :)  So after helping Debbie move her stuff over to her new place we got started rearranging the girls. They are both really enjoying their space and Paul and I are enjoying the peace & quiet!

If you come to visit us {please do!} this is where you will stay so I hope you like ponies.  :)

Bonus:  While we were at Ikea looking for bins & stuff I found the perfect table to use for my sewing machine and it was only $20! So after the girls were in bed I rearranged the whole sewing room too!  Ok, my sewing room is really the living room which I sorta took over because we really only use it for the piano. 

See?

Man, I have got to get some photos on those walls.  I'm kind of scared to put holes in the wall though since we're renting.

My own little corner.  Much better than sharing the dining room table.

Did you notice my hexagon quilt in progress up there on the chair to the right of my sewing table?  This is some of the fabric for the backing & binding.  Yum.

Fabric shelf.  On the left are half yard cuts of cotton.  The middle is cuts of a yard or more and fabrics like flannel.  On the right are fat quarters & charm packs.

Half yards.

More Fat Quarters.

Vintage Sheets.

The bins have 1.5 inch & 2.5 inch strips, scraps & selvages.  That pile on top is the stockings that I almost finished at Christmas.  {They are just waiting for the binding but once the deadline was over I kind of forgot them.  Oops!}

I think my next post should be a list of Works In Progress so I can keep track and maybe be held accountable for finishing them someday!

Can't wait to sew in my new space.  :)
