Sewing room to nursery: Coming together

I’m not ready for a full reveal, but the nursery now has no resemblance to the sewing room that once occupied its space. Last week was a big one for turning this room into a cozy place for our new baby. We finally got rid of the nasty dog poop brown shag carpet and replaced […]

Sewing room to nursery: Decor

It’s been a long time since I wrote a sewing room to nursery post. Progress pretty much stopped once I had Angela because I was too busy caring for her to keep going on the transformation. She had a crib, a changing table and all the clothes and diapers she could ever need, so that […]

Sewing room to nursery: Empty

Big changes are happening in the sewing room and the next few weeks will bring on heck of a transformation, but right about now the room just looks empty. I already wrote about what I did with all my sewing stuff that was crammed in the second bedroom of our home. Every linen closet in […]

Sewing room to nursery: Fabric baskets, cubes and toy storage

One of the top items on my registry was a cube shelf to double as a bookshelf and toy storage. My husband and I are both writers, so instilling a love of books and reading in our child is very important to me. Not quite as important is my desire to not have my house […]

Sewing room to nursery: Matching paint to a quilt

Last night I finished hauling the last of the sewing stuff out of the sewing room. It looks so empty and will look even more so once my husband moves the furniture out and into the basement this afternoon. The plan is for me to bring the dogs to my parents for the weekend while […]

Sewing room to nursery: To-do list

The big day is just five weeks away – that is if my little guy or girl decides to arrive on time – and I still have a lot of nursery sewing to do. I’ve already gotten quite a bit done, but I still have a ways to go until the room and all my […]

Sewing room to nursery: Valances and border prints

I don’t even have my valances hung yet, but I just couldn’t wait to share them. I’m usually not a fan of border prints. They’re hard to use in quilts. You need to miter the corners for them to look kind of OK, and they never quite match up. But I do love the way […]

Sewing studio reveal

My sunroom to sewing studio/office transformation is finally complete. If you’ve been following along, the room started as a sunroom that was half finished after storm damage forced us to completely rebuild it. And it was filled with junk. Since the room wasn’t being used for any useful purpose and the dining room table looked […]

Sewing, a family affair

Last month my family went on our annual vacation. It’s one week in Wisconsin with eight adults, three children 2 and under, three dogs in two cabins on a lake. It is always a lot of fun, and a good break from the day-to-day. But this year, I was still working … kinda. I helped […]
