Sewing room update

Well the drop sheets are packed away, the brushes all cleaned and the painting is done . . . .





The curtains are up and the sewing cabinet and Victoria ( my machine) have moved in





Victoria and her cupboard are now established in their new home. The bed is made with fresh sheets and is ready for visitors.... I wonder who will be it s first guest?




And I have a nice sunny spot to sit and sew




I have this lovely tallboy to fill with fabric and patterns . . . .
There is also a cupboard to hide all my PHD s in

It s all still a little messy and it will probably be weeks before everything finds a place and is organised.... But I am in heaven.... I visit my room several times a day and just enjoy my space

Not a lot of sewing happening , but it will come

"Hope your hands are working on a project that you love"

Ciao

hoe exciting for you,it looks great,enjoy.xx
Although the room needs to be dual purpose, that is, a guest room also, have a think about changing the bed to a sofa bed. Better still I've seen a chair bed. It was a lovely comfy armchair that opened out to a single bed. The frame was the same as a sofa bed just in single bed size. Then you would have a place to sit and hand sew in comfort but still have a bed for a visitor.
You did a wonderful job on the room. Painting is one of those jobs I never mastered. I'm only ever allowed to wash the walls and cut in.
I'll have to get back to you about the dress duumy I see in the photo. I have been giving some serious thought to buying one.
Looks perfect...lucky you...

It looks great Trish, I'm so happy for you. And who cares if it's a bit messy, it's YOUR OWN ROOM!

I was lucky enough to finally get back a room of my own too - after 20+ years of not having one - when DD#1 got married. Im loving it - I get so much more done and although not everything fits in here - at least most of it does. Mine has a bed too and I am seriously considering a sofa bed or a modern version of an old style night & day... if I can find one that fits - trouble is your bed is so pretty, it would be hard to get rid of it!
Have fun!!!

Toorale homestead - Louth

We set off from Bourke  , we had stayed the night at Kidmans camp , which was a lovely spot and headed off south to start the Datling River run. For the first few hours we didn’t see any river as our first destination was  TooraleHomestead The drive in was pretty good , lots of dust and a little bit of corrigation but really quite good  We seen some wildlife including an eagle  Bit blurry as it was taken through the windscreen of the car ,  Some Emu’s and kangaroos  The homestead itself is closed to the public except during school holidays ,so we didn’t get to go in but , we knew before we arrived that was the case and I was keen to see it anyway. Sir Samuel McCaughey in partnership with his Brother John and cousin purchased Toorale, Nocoleche and Dunlop station. Acquiring 800 000 acres of land and 130 000 sheep and 80 horses.  Eventually Samuel bought his brother and cousin out. He built the homestead in 1896 as a wedding gift to his niece. The golden years for the homestead were betw

Scrappy chook quilt

So I have been keeping this one under wraps, not on purpose mainly just because I have been a very lazy blogger. A few months ago, as most of you know I had a visit to chookyblue's place, whilst there I had the pleasure to sleep under some of her gorgeous quilts. But one in particular took my fancy I just loved the scrappiness of this quilt, the lovely colours but mainly just the simple design. So when I headed up to Nundle for my retreat, I sent the lovely Kerry a photo and she assured me she could pull together some lovely fabrics and guide me, to put this lovely quilt together. When I arrived at Nundle This lovely bundle of fabrics awaited me The girls and I used the black and white feature on the iPad to determine light medium and dark fabrics I spent 3/4 of the first day creating these squares, I think I frustrated Miss Joolz because I just could not be random, I had to be organised I didn't want to get end and end up wit

Burren junction - Brewarinna

Beds on Barwon We left Newcastle at a reasonable time on Friday morning not gadgets ( my husband) usual 4am start and headed west.  We really never planned this trip out as such we vaguely decided that sitting by a river with a fire was our plan , a chance to take a deep breathe and slow down our lives for a bit. Almost 13 years ago we were extremely fortunate to do the darling river run with some wonderful friends and thought that we would love to repeat that trip and hopefully see the Darling river with water this time.  However at this stage our plans are a little up in the air with the road to Louth currently closed due to rain and some of the national parks closed for the same reason. Soo where are we heading , not sure but wherever we are heading it will be an adventure. So on day one we drove to Burren Junction where we spent our first night of our adventure at a truck stop  This is our new travelling Duo Reggie ( car) and Ruby ( van) we decided last year it was time to say good
