Craftybear steered us to this gal's site and from there I saw she had a video for what she calls "covers," but which are the easiest Roman shades I've ever seen done. You might want to take a look at:

Just catch up with UFO's and start a couple of quilts I want to make. I want to do dresden plate, scrappy quilt and OBW. There are a few more patterns I want to try but these are the main ones.

Even though I will be moving in the summer, and have LOTS of packing and organizing to do in preparation for that, I will have to quilt a bit in the months between now and summer because quilting feeds my soul. I have a dear friend who is expecting her second child in Feb, so I need to make something for that wee babe. I am thinking ahead to the new wall hangings and quilts that will be needed in my new home! Just today I made a Christmas wall hanging for me new home! Retirement comes with this move so I can hardly wait to have time to do all the quilting I have ever wanted to do!

I will be making DIL a backpack, finish up GD quilt, make a baby quilt, try to make placemat for everyone who will attend a tea we have at church in May and finally a quilt for a house where missionary will stay when they come to town. Hopefully I get this all done by the end of May.

You did it!! I have been reading the board to try and decide what to do next. And, that is what I really need...potholders! I have the perfect fabric for me (cats). I made dolphin potholders for our DIL and she was really happy to get them. Thanks so much for the idea! Righ now I am just a blurr.

Finished baby things, so a polar fleece scarf is next. I bought a circle pattern fro Clotilda to make a circle scarf from polar fleece. It can be made from fabric also.

My son is getting married April 11th and wants something "edgy" and not traditional. I am going to try a twisted Bargello--way more edgy than I am comfortable with!
